Nais ni Senator Risa Hontiveros na doblehin ang sahod ng kababaihan na saklaw ng maternity leave upang matugunan ang pinansyal na pangangailangan ng mga ina.
“An expanded maternity leave bill does not mean a vacation for mothers. We want women to have the chance to take care of their children and their health and well-being without worrying about the economic costs of being away from employment,” ayon kay Hontiveros. (Leonel Abasola)
