There is no paid FMLA in Texas. Only two states offer paid family leave at this time: California and New Jersey.
The best way to get paid for a family leave is to purchase supplemental insurance in advance of a family medical situation arising. Most of these programs are voluntary, so it cost your employer nothing to provide you this option.
