“There’s nothing truly ‘pro-life’ about the Trump administration, as evidenced by their callous threats against basic support for breastfeeding. It is unconscionable to put the health of corporations over the health of children and their mothers. The evidence is overwhelming that breast milk is vital to strengthening a baby’s immune system and brain development. Furthermore, there is a strong connection between breastfeeding and infant mortality, a fact intimately felt by communities of color and families affected by poverty. If the White House won’t stand up for raising healthy children and families, the People’s House will. Brooklyn’s babies are counting on us.”
