Sorry to say, Rose, but the wonderful Texas legislation certainly hasn't
stopped stores/businesses from trying.  Two examples...we have a rather large
chain gym that kicks their breastfeeding moms out of the nursery and into the
bathroon for "THAT", and a VERY large phone company that refuses to allow its
employees to pump on their breaks.  We're working, gently and kindly, to
change that.  Ugh!
