Moms Rising: Policy for pregnant workers is discriminatory

Florence police Officer Lyndi Trischler said she asked to be taken off the streets when she hit the five-month mark of her pregnancy, but her request was denied. On Tuesday, the group Moms Rising delivered 10,000 signatures to Mayor Diane Whalen, urging the city to rescind its policy that only officers injured on the job are eligible for modified duty.
