Thread: Ryan demands paid family leave with speaker job

from Ultraviolet women's group -

Paul Ryan is a hypocrite

BREAKING: Rep. Paul Ryan is running for Speaker of the House--but ONLY if Republicans give him an incredibly hypocritical demand: he wants paid family leave for himself.
Seriously. The same Rep. Ryan who repeatedly voted against giving four weeks of paid family leave to workers wants special treatment and is demanding that he gets family leave every week. And that's only one part of his hypocritical, anti-woman record.
It's important everyone knows Rep. Ryan's hypocrisy. If the future Speaker gets paid family leave, so should the rest of American families.

Moved to General discussion.

Nice article, artist. It's pretty clear why Harry Reid who supports all the things on the list that Ryan opposes, leaving amnesty as their eternal bond and why Harry Reid supports Ryan for Speaker in spite of all their other differences.

Amnesty = Eternal Bond Between Establishment Republicans and Democrats.

Kick Ryan to the curb and ship him back to Wisconsin.
