Senate Republicans Block IVF Access Legislation
News summary

Republicans are facing internal pressures regarding in vitro fertilization (IVF) legislation, as House Speaker Mike Johnson hesitates to bring pro-IVF bills to the floor due to concerns over potential electoral fallout in vulnerable districts. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer plans to revive the Right to IVF Act following Donald Trump's recent pledge to make IVF treatments free, which complicates Senate Republicans' positions after they blocked similar legislation earlier this year. Despite some GOP support, notably from Senators Collins and Murkowski, many Republicans remain resistant to mandates associated with IVF coverage, expressing skepticism about the details of Trump's proposal. Schumer criticized GOP senators for blocking access to IVF while claiming to support family values, asserting that Americans deserve clarity on the Republican stance. The upcoming Senate vote will likely test party unity and highlight divisions over reproductive rights. Democrats continue to accuse Republicans of being out of touch with public sentiment regarding reproductive health issues.
