[ID] 936 [Interest Areas] Concerned Citizen Health Care Provider Researcher [Comment] Before breastfeeding rates in the United States will improve, breastfeeding in public MUST become socially and legally acceptable. This is not a states issue, and it should not be left up to the states to implement protective policy. This is a human rights issue, and our national government MUST issue policy protecting the rights of the mother and child to nurse whenever and wherever the need arises, for as long as both mother and child desire, in accordance with recommendations by the World Health Organization. The policy must make it very clear that breastfeeding of a child of any age, whether the breast is showing or not, is legal, protected, and enforceable through injunctions, fines, and/or damages.
