My company laid off 2 people whilst on maternity leave and being a mostly remote company, my coworkers were in different states.
The one in California sued and got a decent amount from the lawsuit. However the one in Texas didn’t see as bright of an ending.
Maternity leave needs to be protected federally, as right now I think only a handful of states have laws protecting employees on maternity leave.
The fact that it's not protected is all down to America's fear of democratic socialism and workers rights.
And a religious hatred of women
Remember when rituals where conducted by the moon and women were witches who made the world..
