Mothers deserve a space that is comfortable and quiet to feed. Bathrooms and busy spaces are not adequate for this task

New moms need beer and lactation rooms would be an unbelievable convenience!

I just gotta laugh at this one too. I’ve seriously tried to find a solution with our landlord over the course of about 100 emails and conversations. Anyone is welcome to come to Indeed and I will personally show you the situation. Call/text me at 612-237-9815 to set it up. Tom, co-founder, indeed brewing.

Great! The landlord of the solar arts building wants us to have a mother’s room! But doesn’t want to let us use any space in the building to construct it whether we pay for it or not. Indeed does not currently have a suitable area for a mother’s room. Let’s ask the women’s art resources of Minnesota or the girls on the run non profits what they think! ?

At Solar Arts, we strongly agree employers should provide a discrete nursing space for their employees - it's a no-brainer! And MN Stat 181.939 makes it clear it's the employer's responsibility to do so. As such, we're perplexed why Indeed has chosen not to create lactation space in the 15,000 square feet they manage. They built a break room for employees on-site, and there is nothing stopping them from creating a lactation room, too. At one point, we even lined up a separate suite/office for them to rent, but they decided to back out at the last minute. We strongly encourage Indeed to follow the lead of responsible employers everywhere and make their workplace compliant. Maybe if they get enough signatures on this petition they will take action! In the meantime, because we don't have any employees working in the building, Solar Arts will instead continue to provide free space to women and community groups like the Women's Art Resources of Minnesota and Girls On The Run and many other non-profits to support fundraising efforts, as we have for the last several years.

This is a serious issue! Thanks for standing up for the mamas who deserve this and so much more. When the space gets built they should get waited on by the landlord for this ridiculous injustice.
