Target's email response 1

Dear Naomi Barnes,

Thanks for asking us about breastfeeding in our stores. As a family-oriented
retailer, Target has a long-standing practice that supports breastfeeding in our
stores.

We want everyone to feel comfortable shopping at Target. Guests who choose to
breastfeed in public areas of the store are welcome to do so without being made
to feel uncomfortable. Additionally, we support the use of fitting rooms for
women who wish to breastfeed their babies, even if others are waiting to use the
fitting rooms.

We strive to provide a distraction-free environment for all our guests,
including nursing moms. This specific situation escalated to a point where we
were concerned for the safety of our guests, so law enforcement was called. We
regret the incident in our store and will continue to provide a shopping
environment that respects the needs of all guests, including nursing mothers.

At Target, we work hard to provide you with an enjoyable shopping experience. If
you ever have concerns during your visit, please visit the Guest Service Desk
and ask to speak to the Guest Service Team Leader. They'll make every attempt to
resolve the issue while you're in the store.

We appreciate the opportunity to share this information with you.

Sincerely,

Holly
Target Guest Relations
