Poor kid was birthed to be a political prop.

I, for some reason, want to hear her next speech on the “wage gap”.

but Duckworth argued that the ban doesn’t support working parents who can’t be away from an infant

Freaking spare me. You don't need to be tied at the hip with your newborn 24/7 Tammy. A baby can spend a couple hours away from you while you are on the Senate floor. And if that means that you spend less time on the Senate floor, good. No one wants to see you anyway.

She should resign in order to take care of the baby.

Hardly an improvement on 'Duckworth'.

She could use her power as Senator to jump the wait list for the Senatorial Day Care Center.

If I want someone incoherently screaming and filling her diapers on the floor of Congress, I can think of some already there who are far worse than an infant.

On days that all members are allowed to bring kids, this would be fine. But otherwise, this is the workplace, your special place for a government, and legislators. She can leave her kid at home, with her husband, or family.

“Duckworth argued that the ban doesn’t support working parents who can’t be away from an infant for long periods of time”

Seems like you:

A. Can’t really afford children.

B. Need to prioritize work and parent imperatives.

I think the Senate should allow it as long as others can bring their emotional support bunny rabbits.

Duckworth acts like she’s the first woman to have ever had a baby. Our halls of Congress becoming a DAY CARE CENTER is highly symbolic of the total EMASCULATION of America.

Now there’s a spouse destined to be extremely High Maintenance! It takes a special kind of man to be her husband.

Are we going to be subjected to her breast feeding on the Senate floor? This just seems to be the natural progression of things these days.

Senators have to penny pinch else she could have hired somebody to hold the baby for a half hour while she votes on the Senate floor.

Way to go Illinois. Gave us TD as one of 100. All because she served in the military.

If she were a heart surgeon, could she bring her newborn into the operating theater? If she were a coal miner, could she bring her newborn into the depths of the Earth? If she were an infantryman, could she bring her newborn along for the mission?

What makes her think being a Senator is any less important of a job? What makes her think being a Senator allows for more distraction? What makes her think the Senate floor is an acceptable day care? What makes her think it's okay to interfere with other Senators more serious than she about the work at hand.

Clearly, she is the wrong person for such an important position.

She’s a democrat. I say the child can stay, only if the child gets to vote in her place.
