Ohanian is one of only a few high profile men who have ever come out in support of paid family leave. (Mark Zuckerberg made headlines in 2015 when he announced he was taking leave ahead of his first daughter's birth.)

In recent years, individuals, with the help of advocacy groups, have used grassroots efforts to fight for paid leave at their jobs. Still, two-fifths of workers are ineligible for FMLA (which is unpaid) , and as a result many workers are left in the lurch.
