National Right to Life Supports Bills Helping Women and Families, Pregnant and Parenting Students

Today, the House of Representatives passed two bills designed to help women and their families as well as pregnant and parenting students. ‘We applaud House pro-life leaders for their work in ensuring resources and funding are made available for women, children, and families in need,’ stated Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. ‘In a post-Roe America, it is vitally important that resources are made available to support mothers and their babies both before and after birth.’ ‘The Pregnant Students’ Rights Act is needed so a mother should never have to choose between her education and giving birth to her child,’ said Tobias. ‘The Supporting Pregnant and Parenting Women and Families Act would ensure that pregnancy centers are eligible for funding through the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program.’
