Rosen Joins Push to Protect IVF Access for Families Nationwide

WASHINGTON, DC –U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) joined Senate Democratic colleagues in introducing theProtect IVF Act, legislation that would establish a nationwide right to access in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and protect families, providers, and insurers from state-level restrictions or interference. The bill comes in response to increasing attacks on reproductive freedom following the repeal ofRoe v. Wade, including an Alabama Supreme Court ruling that effectively halted IVF services in the state last year. This legislation would ensure that no American is denied the ability to build a family due to extreme and politically motivated laws.
“In the wake of efforts to roll back reproductive rights, no family should have to fear losing access to IVF,”said Senator Rosen. “TheProtect IVF Actensures that Americans—regardless of where they live—can access the medical care they need to build their families. This bill defends both reproductive freedom and basic human dignity.”
Senator Rosen has consistently defended reproductive freedom, taking action to protect access to contraception, emergency care, and fertility treatments. This year, she helped introduce theRight to Contraception Actto guarantee the right to birth control amid rising attacks on reproductive health. In 2024, following the Supreme Court’s decision to weaken federal emergency care protections, Senator Rosencondemned the rulingand renewed her call to restore Roe v. Wade. She also joined efforts to safeguard access to IVF by co-sponsoring theAccess to Family Building Act, which would establish a nationwide right to fertility care and prevent states from imposing harmful restrictions.
