AI Summary

This bill repeals the Minnesota Paid Leave Law and returns unspent funds from the family medical leave account to the general fund. Specifically, the bill transfers all unspent funds from the family medical leave account to the general fund effective July 1, 2025, and completely eliminates all sections of Minnesota Statutes related to the Paid Leave Law, including definitions, benefit calculations, employer requirements, and administrative provisions. The bill effectively dismantles the entire paid family and medical leave program that was previously established, rendering it null and void as of July 1, 2025. This means that the state-run paid leave insurance program will no longer exist, employers will no longer be required to participate in the program, and employees will lose the previously established benefits for family and medical leave. The comprehensive repeal covers everything from program creation and funding mechanisms to employee protections and benefit calculations across numerous sections of Minnesota law.
