And who, exactly, printed up and circulated those petitions?
There should be some sponsoring organization or names on the petitions.

Subject: US breastfeeding campaign

I want to share that it is important to continue to write letters and lobby
in support of the proposed ad council campaign, as it is still
being "changed." I thought that all was settled, as it was to start in
Spring, but that was a false impression. It seems that a continuing
avalanche of letters is still needed to push it out.(This is a good place
for puuuuuuushing!) Until we see and assess it, we can't assume that all is
well. Could we picket in Washington DC, as the weather is nicer now than
when this started? I understand that petitions were presented from women
who felt guilty about not breastfeeding. Evidently, this is what was used
to sway the opinion of the people who are changing the campaign.  Judy
