Hooray for Michigans brand new Breastfeeding Anti-Descrimination Act. Olivia Speicher, you might want to print a few copies to hand out!! Good news: moms can sue. Bad news: they will only get $200 and MAYBE legal fees :( Sec. 2. Except where expressly permitted by state or federal statute or a regulation promulgated thereunder, a person with control over a public accommodation or public service shall not do any of the following: (a) Deny the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations of a place of public accommodation or public service to a woman because she is breastfeeding a child. (b) Print, circulate, post, mail, or otherwise cause to be published a statement, advertisement, notice, or sign that indicates any of the following: (i) That the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations of a place of public accommodation or public service will be refused, withheld from, or denied a woman because she is breastfeeding a child. (ii) That a woman’s patronage of or presence at a place of public accommodation is objectionable, unwelcome, unacceptable, or undesirable because she is breastfeeding a child. Here is the fine print: legislature.mi.gov/documents/2013-2014/billenrolled/Senate/htm/2013-SNB-0674.htm
