Paid leave for new mothers : map

Australia is 22 weeks at minimum wage by the government. Most businesses also offer an additional 12 weeks at full wage. You can take up to a year off without your employer being able to take issue.

What happend to Melania fighting for this? Dropped that quick in the first admin. Hell, even Matt Gaetz came out in favor and was working on it. Again, dropped fast.

I think you mean government mandated paid maternity leave. In America, companies themselves decide the leave they want to give their employees.

Is it right? No. But the framing is disingenuous and implies no one in the US EVER gets maternity leave EVER, and that’s not true.
