    Under ARP Act Fed. Employees get 15 weeks paid leave if their kids out of school.

    Paid To Stay Home— Coronavirus Aid Bill Pays Federal Employees With Kids Out Of School Up To $21K

    The U.S. House version of the “American Rescue Plan Act of 2021” – a $1.9 trillion emergency aid package to help America recover from the coronavirus pandemic has an extra perk for federal workers: Enhanced paid time off if your child is enrolled in a school that isn’t back to full-time, in-classroom instruction.

    Critics call it a personal bailout for bureaucrats. It is funded through a new $570 million family leave account exclusively for federal workers.

    While millions of parents struggle to work from home with kids who are enrolled in shuttered or partially shuttered schools, and millions more left the workforce or lost jobs to care for their at-home children, evidently parents in the federal bureaucracy need their own, personal Covid-19 bailout.
    Under the bill as currently drafted, full-time federal employees can take up to 600 hours in paid leave until September 30, up to $35 an hour and $1,400 a week. That’s 15 weeks for a 40-hour employee. Part-time and “seasonal” employees are eligible, too, with equivalent hours established by their agency.

    15 $#@!ing weeks. Plus 10 Federal holidays, 20 days vacay and 13 sick days. That's 5 months pay and not a bit of work done. Not like they actually get any work done anyway.

    What do you want to bet their ranks grow by 20% minimum over the next 4 years?

    It's the only way democrats are assured of power.

    Annnnnnnnd, it'll only be the creme-dela-creme. (Just like the weirdo Rand put in his place earlier)
