I *know* the US does not have the materity rights that most of us 
have, in law, in Europe, but surely SURELY you have health and safety 
at work legislation that protects people working in conditions that 
are injurious to their health and well-being??

A mother with an 8-week old baby back at work is bad enough,  but 
working and preserving bf under those strictures is awful.
