The U.S. Breastfeeding Committee submitted comments in response to the U.S. Department of Labor Request for Information (RFI) on Paid Leave. Through the RFI, the Department is gathering information concerning the effectiveness of current state- and employer-provided paid leave programs, and how access or lack of access to paid leave programs impacts America's workers and their families. USBC comments describe how access to paid family and medical leave impacts breastfeeding, how state programs are making a difference, why a national program is needed, and key components of a comprehensive national paid family and medical leave program.
