Duckworth pushes for paid leave for pregnancy loss

Senator Tammy Duckworth introduced legislation Tuesday that would provide three days of paid leave for women following a pregnancy loss, a failed adoption or surrogacy arrangement, an unsuccessful fertility procedure or a related medical diagnosis.

It's a condition the Democratic senator from Illinois has suffered herself; she had a miscarriage during her 2016 Senate campaign.  "I found out in the morning I had a miscarriage and had to go back to work in the afternoon, and I really needed time to process," Duckworth told CBS News in an interview. "It's so deeply personal, that journey to parenthood for families, and to have to go back to work that same day and not be able to grieve...Or sometimes you need to pull your resources together and figure out what you're going to do next and not have that time — to me it seems like this is something that's an oversight when it comes to family leave policies."
