Abstract

Challengers to IBCLC licensure filed a private lawsuit to dismantle the Georgia Act arguing equivalence in competencies between the IBCLC and the CLC and asserting ideological claims that economic liberty is promoted by the dismantling of occupational licensing. This Commentary reveals who is behind the private lawsuit in Georgia and explores how it threatens the multiple measures of increased access to clinical lactation care for Georgia’s breastfeeding families which occurred following passage of the Georgia Act.
