[ID] 108 [Interest Areas] Breastfeeding Coalition Representative Concerned Citizen Lactation Professional [Comment] The United States has the worst maternity leave practices out of all the industrialized countries. When women go back to work at 1 week or 3 weeks or 6 weeks the chances of succesful lactation are very small. Even a 12 week maternity leave is a minimal amount of time to truely establish lactation. We don't want to go backwards in women's rights in the workplace, but we need to look at the impact on future generations. Our country is facing many health crisis that could potentially be solved by supporting lactation and maternal bonding. [Topic]
