Yeah, cause everyone takes their baby to work! WTF?

So women can take kids to work but not the men? We should have “Navy Seals Take Family on Mission” day
-
Who said the men can't? I never said that. I think that would be awesome, useful, and practical. My Dad took me to work at both Airco Temescal and Perkin-Elmer ETEC in the 1970s. What's the problem?

Breastfeeding is a medical consideration that men don't need. There was *zero* problem w/ delaying a vote till John McCain was recovered enough to participate. She's not asking for a delay---she's asking for the ability to bring her baby w/ her, to breastfeed. MEDICAL ISSUE!

Dang, 18 weeks parental leave ALREADY in place.... It's almost like they understand that raising the next generation is work. <3

I wonder how being flush with pregnancy hormones influenced her voting already?

Why does she think her baby should be in chambers for votes. Millions of parents cannot bring their babies to their workplace for fear of distracting others from their work. So leave the baby in your office, go vote and go back to your office, and shut up

There are only 100 US Senators. Nuance is hard for you, I can see.

Reading these responses-my goodness! What’s so awful about a baby anyway! Half of these responses sound like she’s asking to bring plutonium to the Senate floor. Its for a couple minutes so she can cast her vote. She’s not asking Mitch McConnell to change its diapers.
-
Well then if it's only for a couple of minutes she can get a baby sitter fairly easy then with no inconvenience.
-
Why? Why is it an issue to bring the baby in?
-
Baby's are disruptive in work environment for one. Would you like your heart surgeon watching his baby during work. I don't think so.
-
Please be civil & stop with the “I didn’t think so” business. Sen Duckworth will not be performing heart surgery. She will be reviewing bills in her office, then coming to the floor to cast a vote. I’m sure her 99 colleagues can deal with that for a few. She wants to do her job.

My experience with a pregnant wife [bought a house we didn't need due to "nesting instincts"] is that under no circumstance should a pregnant woman be making decision of national significance.

Nice name calling is all I see, You might even know I'm right if you have had a child.

I’ve had a child. And you’re not right.
