Legislation about Nursing Mothers' Rights at Work
This category contains bills and statutes that address the rights new mothers have at work to express breast milk. Many of these laws offer protections beyond those provided by the federal Affordable Care Act of 2010, which amended the Fair Labor Standards Act to grant hourly, non-exempt workers the right to reasonable break time and a private place to express breast milk at work for one year after their child’s birth.
