Got my response from BRICK in the case of Lucy Eades and they are WAY off! Sally Ellertson 10:11 AM (52 minutes ago) "The City of Burleson supports breastfeeding and appreciates recognition of National Breastfeeding Week. The city also supports the law which states “A mother is entitled to breast-feed her baby in any location in which the mother is authorized to be.” Today, two women were breastfeeding in or near a public entrance to the city’s recreation center where we were hosting a camp for youth ages 5 – 13 in addition to other recreation center patrons. To be respectful of everyone’s rights we asked the women to cover up. There is nothing in the law that prohibits the city from requiring a mother to cover up. We also offered a room in an attempt to be more accommodative. The city did not attempt to prohibit breastfeeding and we fully support the freedom of mothers to breastfeed as long as it doesn’t infringe on someone else’s freedom."
