We’re in a history-making moment for the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (S. 1486)! This important legislation was passed by the U.S. House of Representatives in May and just last week, it took a giant leap forward in the U.S. Senate when an important committee of Senators passed the bill with very strong bipartisan support.
Next, we need the full Senate to pass the bill so President Biden can sign it into law! The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act would make it unmistakable: employers must provide reasonable accommodations (like a cashier’s stool or extra bathroom breaks) to pregnant workers who need them to stay safe at work.
Can you help us push the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act over the finish line in the U.S. Senate and over to President Biden’s desk?
>>> We need volunteers in the following states to write 10 pre-stamped postcards to the in-district and DC offices of their U.S. Senators! Sign up now!
