Lawmakers try to change how people are supported after pregnancy loss.
Both forms of loss are emotionally devastating and physically painful for those who endure them, yet there is relatively little support around pregnancy loss in society today, and especially in the workplace.
The bill, introduced in the U.S. House by Rep. Ayanna Pressley , also proposes a $45 million annual investment in pregnancy-loss research at the National Institutes of Health and a federal public information campaign to share information on both how common pregnancy loss is, and how people can be supported.
"As a federal mandate, it's at least a good start because in too many situations some workers have no accommodations," said, which has endorsed Pressley and Duckworth's legislation."We have to understand that when we don't provide these accommodations, there's a real cost in productivity."
