This bipartisan resolution would allow new parents to identify proxy voters to vote on their behalf while giving birth. (Under current house rules, new parents can't vote while under maternity/paternity leave). Supporting new parents in parental leave is an important issue in mental health! We love to see these politicians working together to 1) support their fellow delegates and their families and 2) recognize the voices of delegates' constituents during parental leave!
