Senate to Reconsider IVF Bill After Trump's Debate Pledge

Senate Majority Leader Schumer schedules a second vote on IVF protections, challenging GOP stance following Trump's recent support.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced a new vote on the Right to IVF Act, aiming to expand access to in vitro fertilization.
The move follows former President Donald Trump's debate pledge to mandate insurance or government coverage for IVF treatments.
In June, the IVF bill failed to advance, with only two Republicans, Senators Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski, supporting it.
Republicans remain divided on the issue, with some expressing concerns over the high costs and implications for health care premiums.
Democrats argue the vote will force Republicans to clarify their position on IVF access ahead of the upcoming elections.
