Sir:
Your Committee on Veterans, Military, & International Affairs, & Culture and the Arts, to which was referred H.B. No. 169 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO FAMILY LEAVE,"
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee has amended this measure by:

(2) Stipulating that the use of family leave for certain activities for which an employee may take military family leave under federal law provided for in this measure also applies to reciprocal beneficiaries; and
(3) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Veterans, Military, & International Affairs, & Culture and the Arts that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 169, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 169, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
