The Providing Urgent Maternal Protections (PUMP) for Nursing Mothers Act (H.R. 3110) was passed with bipartisan support in the House of Representatives last year. Now we need to urge the full Senate to take up and pass the bill.
One of the most effective and impactful ways that we push for action is by sharing stories from real people that illuminate the need for the right to pump at work. When legislators hear about the actual babies, parents, and providers that are counting on them, it makes a difference! Can you take a few minutes right now to share why workplace lactation protections matter to you?
The U.S. Breastfeeding Committee invite you to share your insights and experiences as a parent, a community member, a lactation support or health care provider, a public health worker, or as someone passionate about the importance of human milk feeding. A story doesn’t need to be long to make an impact, and it can be about your own experience or those of clients, community members, the public at large, or family members.
