Hi Pam,

Right to Breastfeed Act, H.R. 1848, Signed into Law
"Most of you have heard by now that on September 29, 1999, President
Clinton signed the Treasury Postal Appropriations bill which included
Rep. Maloney's Right to Breastfeed Act. The legislation ensures a
woman's right to breastfeed her child anywhere on federal property where
she and her child are authorized to be. "It is a shame that we need this
law to protect such a natural choice, but women were being harassed,
told to leave national parks and museums and intimidated off of federal
grounds simply for breastfeeding," said Rep. Maloney. "Until now, women
had no recourse."

Hi All,
I have searched and searched. Does anyone know the USA federal law that requires accomodation in federal buildings for breastfeeding mothers?
You can email me privately if you would like.
Thanks,
Pam.
