The Nation-wide Applebee's Nurse-In, which took place Saturday, September 8, 2007, drew around 2000 protesters:

(See below for celbratory video and video announcement posted on Youtube) Recently a mom was told she could not feed her baby at an Applebee's restaurant without a blanket covering her. The response from Applebee's Corporate Offices has been to say that women must either use a blanket or go to the bathroom to nurse and that they support the actions of the employees who were responsible for the incident. Local Applebee's franchise locations may not agree with the discriminatory policy, but nevertheless a corporate policy supporting human rights and providing for training of all employees to coincide with the human right of a baby to eat can and should be implemented at all restaurants. One senator suggested that mothers hold up signs saying that Applebee's does not allow small children to eat at their restaurant.
