MOTHERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO BREAST FEED IN PUBLIC IN ALBUQUERQUE. THAT’S THE GIST OF AN AMENDMENT BEING PROPOSED BY CITY COUNCILOR DIANE GIBSON.

GIBSON’S AMENDMENT IS EXPECTED TO BE CONSIDERED BY A CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE ON MONDAY. SHE SAYS SHE’S PROPOSING LANGUAGE BE ADDED TO THE EXISTING ORDINANCE THAT MAKES BREAST FEEDING IN PUBLIC LEGAL.
