Official Team Britt Newsletter | | | Republicans Ted Cruz and Katie Britt introduce bill to protect IVF access | Two Senate Republicans on Monday introduced legislation to protect access to in vitro fertilization, known as IVF, after a Democratic-led effort to do so failed earlier this year in the upper chamber. The bill, titled the IVF Protection Act, was introduced by Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas and Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama. | | | Sen. Katie Britt on fixes to child care: ‘Parents back in the driver’s seat’ | Affordable and high-quality child care isn’t just an issue for individual families: It’s a workforce and jobs issue that Congress can and should take seriously, Sens. Katie Britt and Patty Murray said Wednesday. Britt, a Republican from Alabama, and Murray, a Democrat from Washington, are often on opposite sides of the aisle on important issues. But in a virtual event hosted by AL.com and The Seattle Times, and joined by Lisa Hamilton, CEO of the Annie E. Casey Foundation, each agreed to take the others’ proposals on how to tackle increasing costs of care, and gaps in coverage, seriously. | | | Sen. Britt advocates for nationwide IVF protection legislation | In an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal, Senator Katie Britt, R-Alabama, and Senator Ted Cruz, R-Texas, articulated their rationale for proposing federal legislation aimed at safeguarding access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) across the United States. The catalyst for this legislative initiative was a February ruling by the Alabama Supreme Court, which decreed that embryos created through IVF should be recognized as children under the law. | | | | | Alabama values.
