The amended Family Leave (S2928-A) bill now includes siblings.

In March 2021, the Legislative Committee reviewed the bill and made the following comment:

"... passage of this bill would not uniquely affect the title industry however, it is worth noting that NYS family leave is up to 12 weeks of paid time off work. Expanding eligibility may negatively impact small businesses including title agents.

It pertains to the Family Leave Act and expands the definition of family member for the purposes of paid family leave to include siblings."
