Chega rejects government's breastfeeding leave limit

The government's proposal to limit breastfeeding leave is at risk of being rejected by Parliament. Chega party leader André Ventura stated they will not support the measure. The proposed change would cap breastfeeding leave at two years, requiring a medical certificate from the start and every six months. Current law has no set limit. Chega argues the proposal undermines mothers' rights and will vote against it, likely leading to its defeat alongside opposition from the PS and other left-wing parties.
