Jury Duty Exemption for Breastfeeding Act of 2023

This bill exempts breastfeeding women from federal jury duty upon their request. It amends federal court rules (28 U.S.C. §1866) to require courts to excuse these individuals automatically when they ask, without needing medical documentation. The exemption also applies to courts in the District of Columbia through a similar update to local law. It directly affects breastfeeding women summoned for jury service in federal or DC courts. The policy change removes a barrier for new mothers by allowing them to skip jury duty simply by stating their breastfeeding status.
