State laws relating to public breastfeeding:
  1. Are relatively the same across the nation.
  2. Vary among states across the nation.
  3. Prohibit any public breastfeeding.
  4. Are illegal and in need of revision.
Explanation
Answer: B - State laws relating to public breastfeeding vary among the states in our nation. Some laws are very accommodating to breastfeeding mothers and their infants. They permit the mother to breastfeed in all public places even when the breast is exposed. Others may permit public breastfeeding but they do not have provisions to enforce these rights. Although we may not agree with laws that do not protect the rights of breastfeeding mothers, they are not illegal.
