This poor mom! She couldn't wait until her scheduled break to go pump -- nevermind that other employees took smoke breaks whenever they wanted -- so she went to the bathroom for 15 minutes.

Then she got FIRED. But wait, it gets worse:

Read LaNisa's story at Campbell Brown's blog on CNN.

And check out No One Should Get Fired for Pumping at Work to see what you can do to fight for these rights.
