Mr. President, this bill does nothing to protect the rights of students. It treats students as political pawns, endangering their health and well being to advance Republicans extreme anti abortion agenda. Therefore, I urge my colleagues to vote no on advancing S.3627 and instead join us in advancing the protections that pregnant and parenting students actually need to thrive. Mr. President, I yield back. (07:32–07:49)
CLAIM
Asserts that S.3627 should be opposed and that alternative protections for pregnant and parenting students should be supported.
