During her time as a state representative Roys helped pass legislation that protects a woman's right to breastfeed in public without being asked to move or cover herself
A Democratic candidate in Wisconsin's gubernatorial race released a campaign ad showing her breastfeeding while detailing her efforts to ban the use of Bisphenol A in baby bottles and sippy cups in the state. "They knew the baby was going to be there and they knew I was going to be taking care of the baby sometimes".
Roys said the moment was unscripted, and the two-minute video is likely the first time a political candidate has nursed on camera, according to Travis Nelson Ridout, a political science professor at Washington State University.
"Government should be about helping every person achieve his or her potential - and Wisconsin used to do it so well".
In the ad, Kelda Roys talks about her effort to pass legislation that prohibited the use of the chemical, known as BPA, while she was in the state Assembly; as she describes her legislative activities, her husband hands their daughter to her and she begins to breastfeed.
