- The Senate agreed to the title of the bill. Senators Hoitenga and Irwin asked and were granted unanimous consent to make statements and moved that the statements be printed in the Journal. The motion prevailed. Senator Hoitenga’s statement is as follows: Mr. President, I must admit this is not an amendment I ever thought I’d have to offer in this Legislature. As far as I’m aware, women—specifically mothers—are the only people who can breastfeed or pump milk. Yet, for some reason, this bill removes the words “woman” and “she” and changes these proper terms to “individual.” My amendment will simply specify that this bill related to producing breast milk respectfully applies to women. Thank you, and I ask for your “yes” vote. Senator Irwin’s statement is as follows: I want to ask my colleagues to oppose this amendment because this legislation is about supporting moms and babies, not about some twisted culture war.
