In a Jan. 14 follow-up Facebook post, Brown shared that state auditor and former legislator Andrew Sorrell has reached out to her about working to get bill HB369 — a bill designed to help nursing Alabama mothers receive exemption from jury duty — passed in the state legislature.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Breastfeeding women in Alabama will be excused from jury duty, the state’s highest court ordered unanimously on Friday, in response to public outcry from a mother who said that she was threatened with child protective services for bringing her nursing infant into court.

Alabama mothers react to supreme court ruling excusing breastfeeding mothers from jury duty

Part of the order read, ‘A nursing mother of an infant child clearly qualifies for the excuse from jury service." It goes on to say “other competent evidence” from a prospective juror seeking to be excused must be submitted telephone, electronic mail, or writing in advance of the prospective juror’s summoned date."

Before Friday’s decision, there were laws in Alabama excusing prospective jurors because of certain health concerns, but breastfeeding wasn’t included.
