House Passes Pregnant Students Rights Act
The U S House approved the Pregnant Students Rights Act on a 212 to 207 vote led by Rep Ashley Hinson. The bill requires colleges to inform pregnant students of education accommodations and Title IX protections and to offer campus and community pregnancy resources plus reporting options for discrimination. Republicans frame the measure as pro life with critics noting gaps in child care and broader abortion rights concerns. The chamber also backed the Supporting Pregnant and Parenting Women and Families Act limiting TANF funding restrictions on pregnancy resource centers.
