So-Called "Railway Safety Act" Constitutes a Political Handout to Big Labor That Does Nothing to Improve Safety At All

America as we know it was built largely upon and because of our rail industry, and today it remains a pillar of our economy.

Hospital Mix-Up Over Milk Print

A New Jersey mother is suing her local hospital after a nurse mistakenly brought her the wrong baby to breastfeed.

Melissa Richman claims The Valley Hospital maternity ward staff failed to double-check the identification bracelets of the mother and child when she was brought what she thought was her newborn daughter for a 4:30am feeding. According to news reports, Richman states that after twenty minutes of breastfeeding the wrong baby a nurse came in and admitted the error.

Richman is suing the hospital, alleging that the mix-up deprived her newborn daughter of colostrum, the nutrient-rich milk produced by a new mother, as well as the initial bonding experience between mother and child.

"It should be inconceivable that something like this could happen," said David Richman, Melissa's husband.

The Valley Hospital declined to comment.
