Senate Approves Breastfeeding In Public Bill

MADISON, Wis. (WTAQ) - Wisconsin senators voted Tuesday to let mothers breastfeed in public places without being hassled. The measure passed on a voice vote. It was sent to Governor Jim Doyle after the Assembly okayed it last fall. Senate President Fred Risser of Madison was among the most vocal supporters of the measure. He said it will protect moms who breastfeed in malls and restaurants. Those who interfere would pay fines of up to $200. Fewer than 10 states don’t offer these protections.

1. Won't this lead to the wholesale destruction of society?

Oh, wait--they're talking about malls, so I guess it would be retail.

10. You forgot to mention the Olive Garden exception.

And breastfeeding of pit bulls is strictly forbidden all over Wisconsin.
