Helena-West Helena · Helena-West HelenaOver in Little Rock, Marine Glisolvic of KATV forwarded me a tweet from CNN, which said the following: “The US is one of only seven countries in the world without some form of universal paid family and medical leave, despite it being quite popular across the political spectrum.” It is nice to note that Glisolvic along with CNN have recognized at least two things that I’ve been advocating for in this column for some time.
