Republicans block Senate Democrats’ IVF bill

Republicans blocked a second attempt for legislation to establish a nationwide right to in vitro fertilization, claiming it was an election-year stunt by Democrats.
The Senate vote was 51-44, failing to reach the 60 votes needed, with only two Republicans supporting the bill.
Ohio Senator JD Vance, campaigning during the vote, described the proposal as a "ridiculous showboat bill" with no chance of success.
