AB 1576, as it passed the Assembly, required the superior court to allow an attorney or other officer of the superior court access to a lactation room that is provided to court employees with priority to court employees.
The Senate amendments, instead, commencing July 1, 2024, require the superior court to provide any court user access to a lactation room in any courthouse in which a lactation room is also provided to court employees, as specified. The Senate amendments require the lactation room for court users to be located within the court facility in an area that is accessible, or reasonably accessible, to the public, and require, except as provided, the lactation room for court users to meet all of the requirements imposed upon an employer with respect to providing a lactation room for employees.
