If you have a second, please help this worthy little petition meet its goal. It would do much good if we each took a little bit of time to call the US Government to action, to do their part to curb the predatory marketing practices of formula companies by making the WHO Code law and thereby giving crucial support to nursing moms and babies whose breastfeeding efforts are so vulnerable to sabotage. This is not an attack on those who formula feed, nor is it an attempt to restrict access to formula and accessories such as bottles and teats for those who need them. This is strictly a measure aimed at the heinous practices of corporations who put their bottom line ahead of the well-being of human beings and the planet. https://change.org/petitions/president-barack-obama-united-states-congress-adopt-the-international-code-of-marketing-of-breast-milk-substitutes-as-law
