Woman Ejected From Courthouse For Breastfeeding

A woman who was breastfeeding her newborn baby in a courthouse was told to leave by two female employees. According to the article:

Elydia Arthur said she was humiliated when two female employees called security and began shouting at her to leave.
It was Thursday, and the mother of three was at the Collin
County Courts and Probation building in McKinney with her 10-day-old son, Noah. Arthur said she received permission to go into an office to nurse the baby. Minutes later, the two women employees confronted her.

This incident makes me especially angry because the mother had received permission to nurse her baby privately in an office before the two women employees decided to harass her. Once again, it's a good thing that the mother received an apology. Let's hope that the two women who harassed the mother receive some disciplinary action.
