NPWF [the National Partnership for Women and Families] grades each state on its "laws that relate to workplace rights and protections for new parents." Only two — California and Connecticut — received an A-, and 18 mostly Republican-dominated states, including Alabama, Georgia, and Oklahoma, were given Fs for "failing to provide a single benefit or program to help support families before and after the birth, adoption or foster placement of a child."
