Description: Senate Republicans voted to block a bill guaranteeing nationwide access to in vitro fertilization. The bill failed to advance in a procedural vote along party lines. Senate Democrats introduced the bill, called the Right to IVF Act, to codify access to IVF treatment and require coverage under some insurance plans. Republicans criticized the bill as unnecessary overreach and a political stunt. A recent Alabama ruling said frozen embryos have rights as children, which Democrats say shows states could restrict IVF access. Republicans introduced alternative bills focused on state flexibility.
