It is unclear if she declared leave when she was absent from congress for several weeks after the birth of her child. https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/IF/IF12420#:~:text=The%20benefit%20is%20available%20to,adoption%2C%20or%20foster%20care%20placement https://bnnbreaking.com/world/us/floridas-anna-paulina-luna-interrupts-maternity-leave-for-crucial-speaker-vote/ https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/house/2801753/anna-paulina-luna-reverses-stance-proxy-voting-only-new-mothers/ https://www.commerce.gov/hr/paid-parental-leave-federal-employees#:~:text=As%20a%20result%2C%20the%20Family,or%20after%20October%201%2C%202020. https://www.ocwr.gov/employee-rights-legislative-branch/family-and-medical-leave-act/paid-parental-leave/ https://x.com/ericcortellessa/status/1709313222636155366?s=46&t=F8-ROqMIPuuxTzA0nDKwvw https://www.huffpost.com/entry/luna-seeks-proxy-voting-for-new-mothers-migrant-family-separation_n_65a95dc7e4b041f1ce65265e/amp
