A company is offering a $5,000 baby bonus to its employees in response to others offering to pay for travel expenses related to abortions.

PublicSq, a shopping app for patriotic retailers, announced the new policy this week. The bonus applies to its male and female employees whether the baby is biological or adopted."While some companies in America pay their employees to kill their unborn children, we pay ours to have as many babies as possible," CEO Michael Seifert tweeted.We are a network of patriotic small businesses that allows you to find high-quality alternatives to woke corporations.

The app employs 55 staff members, which means the company is bound by the federal mandate Family and Medical Leave Act to provide up to 12 weeks of job-protected leave. Employees who have worked at a company of more than 50 employees are eligible for FMLA leave, although it is not required to be paid.

It is unclear if PublicSq provides a paid parental leave as the company did not respond to the Washington Examiner's request for comment.Over 50 companies have committed to providing resources to their employees seeking an abortion in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision on Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. The decision removed the federal protection of the procedure and turned over the ability to legislate it to states.

Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, former Vice President Mike Pence, and Sen. Tim Scott have expressed inclinations in their 2024 presidential campaigns for a nationwide ban on abortion after 15 weeks. Sen. Lindsey Graham has also proposed a nationwide ban of 15 weeks. Some Senate Republicans support Graham's effort, but the majority of the caucus opposes it, most notably Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell .
