Interesting isn't it? With what makes some people raise an eyebrow while others barely bat an eye.

This story certainly falls into that category. How do nursing mothers make you feel? The only reason why I posed that last question was because certain people get into that uncomfortable mode when they hear those two words - nursing mothers. How about when it comes into the workplace?

Just this past year Minnesota became only the 3rd State to do this

Things have changed quite a bit since the last ten or twenty years, heck even in the last 12 months. More laws are invented to protect a wider range of people, like gender and racial issues, and nursing mothers. According to minnesota.cbslocal.com "The state Legislature this year approved paid break time for nursing mothers in a move that got bipartisan support and that experts call the “next frontier” for gender equity in the workplace" Minnesota is only the 3rd State in the country that has informed employers that you can't penalize your employees financially (by not paying them), by that I mean the mothers that are on the job site wanting to feed their baby.

This of course is another of those situations where no doubt people will voice their opinion for or against it

One of the main forces that backed up this new requirement is GOP Sen. Julia Coleman and DFL Rep. Erin Koegel. These two worked together to make it happen. What do you think? Should mothers who bring in their baby trying to make a living be given paid work breaks to breastfeed their child?

T think this is the best argument ending response right here

When asked about what message mothers feeding their baby at work brings to the public, minnesota.cbslocal reported that Coleman said it best “It says breastfeeding is a part of working moms’ lives. Deal with it,”

Mic drop.


 

LOOK: Things from the year you were born that don't exist anymore

The iconic (and at times silly) toys, technologies, and electronics have been usurped since their grand entrance, either by advances in technology or breakthroughs in common sense. See how many things on this list trigger childhood memories—and which ones were here and gone so fast you missed them entirely.

LOOK: Best Beers From Every State

To find the best beer in each state and Washington D.C., Stacker analyzed January 2020 data from BeerAdvocate, a website that gathers user scores for beer in real-time. BeerAdvocate makes its determinations by compiling consumer ratings for all 50 states and Washington D.C. and applying a weighted rank to each. The weighted rank pulls the beer toward the list's average based on the number of ratings it has and aims to allow lesser-known beers to increase in rank. Only beers with at least 10 rankings to be considered; we took it a step further to only include beers with at least 100 user rankings in our gallery. Keep reading to find out what the best beer is in each of the 50 states and Washington D.C.
