I think on the LLLI web page, Legal Issues part, you might be able to find links to the specific language in the various state bills. At least some of them refer to breastfeeding a child (not an infant, not a newborn, not a child under three). At the same time, hallaluyeah that they're willing to consider it OK to nurse until age 3, let alone in public!!! This is way beyond a lot of places. You might just point them in my direction if they need convincing that lots of perfectly normal folks nurse kids in the US way beyond age 3. But frankly, I settle for having to nurse the over 3 year olds in private! They probably want to make it not OK for adult men to suck on women's breasts in public, and they *thought* that by saying up to age 3, they were including all children.
