FMLA Amended Again

On Oct. 28, 2009, President Obama signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010, Public Law 111-84 ("NDAA for 2010"). Primarily a defense appropriations law, the NDAA contains several amendments to the family military-leave provisions of the Family and Medical Leave Act ("FMLA"). Although no specific effective date is noted in the amendments, it appears these amendments went into effect upon President Obama's signature and are the most recent in a series of changes to the FMLA.
