Ahead of Mother’s Day, Senators Katie Britt (R-AL), Kevin Cramer (R-ND), and Eric Schmitt (R-MO) introduced the MOMS Act to expand support for women during pregnancy, postpartum, and early motherhood.
The bill would create a national Pregnancy.gov website to connect women with nearby resources like health care, financial aid, adoption agencies, and pregnancy centers.
With birth and fertility rates at record lows, the bill also funds rural maternity care, telehealth, and early child support collection. It’s backed by major pro-life organizations and over 20 Senate Republicans.
Senator Britt called the bill a step toward “building a culture of life” and ensuring moms and families “have the tools to thrive.”
