Resumen con IA Employers would have to treat workers who adopt a child up to six years old the same as biological parents for their first year of benefits and protections. This rule applies to most employees receiving wages, though it excludes certain independent contractors and agricultural workers. People adopting through licensed agencies or specific legal processes would be covered by these changes. (Todavía no está traducido al español.)¹
