Statement of Administration Policy: H.R. 6914 - Pregnant Students' Rights Act

January 16, 2024

STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY

(House Rules)
(Rep. Hinson, R-IA, and four cosponsors)

The Administration opposes H.R. 6914 in its current form. Existing federal civil rights laws have long prohibited discrimination against students on the basis of pregnancy and related conditions, and institutions of higher education are already required to provide reasonable modifications to pregnant students—from modified class schedules to medical leave. The Administration will continue taking action to ensure that students know their rights under federal law and have access to the comprehensive, evidence-based information and resources they need to make informed decisions about their health care.
