WICHITA, Kan. - Don't mess with breast-feeding moms in Kansas.
That is the message of a new state law that protects a woman's right to breast-feed her baby in public. Now state health officials and breast-feeding advocates are distributing 40,000 laminated cards saying that for breast-feeding mothers to carry with them.

It is all part of a public education campaign by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and La Leche League.

"The law is really no good unless moms know about it," said Brenda Bandy, professional liaison for La Leche League of Kansas. "These cards are handy, they're durable, and they might just be the little bit of added confidence some moms need."
