Here's the link to LLL's information about the law in Chicago.
http://www.lalecheleague.org/Law/Bills18.html

It states that breastfeeding is not indecent behavior. It doesn't actually
have any information about where a mother has the right to breastfeed.

Has the mother been in contact with LLL yet? That might be an excellent
first step. As the YMCA seems uncooperative, and uninformed, getting in
touch with LLL where there are people trained in how to handle this sort of
situation might get some results.  The mother wants to contact a local
leader, and the local leader will need to contact the APL for her area. If
the APL is not able to resolve the situation, she will have some suggestions
about how to proceed further.

Good luck to this mom. She clearly has an uphill battle.
