A bill introduced recently by Rep. Ashley Hinson aims to protect the rights of pregnant students on college campuses.
“We want to make sure we're truly empowering pregnant women to choose the best future for themselves,” the Iowa Republican told the Washington Examiner in an interview. “And they don't have to sacrifice their education to do that.”
Hinson said these accommodations would include “things like being able to modify a class schedule, being able to have an excused absence to be able to go to the doctor.” “Basically, what we want is the accountability there. We want to make sure that students are offered all these options and the flexibility they need to be able to complete their education and achieve those goals,” Hinson said. “We want young moms to feel supported to pursue their education and motherhood at the same time and just know about every resource available to them.”
Asked about the bill’s prospects, and if it can secure any support from Democrats in a House currently under their control, Hinson said she hopes the effort could be bipartisan.
