** Georgia Life Alliance Condemns Sen. Jon Ossoff’s Vote Blocking Pregnant Students’ Rights Act
------------------------------------------------------------
Georgia Life Alliance joined with National Right to Life to express strong disappointment following Jon Ossoff’s (D-GA) vote against invoking cloture on the Pregnant Students’ Rights Act ([link removed]) , a common-sense bill that would ensure pregnant and parenting college students are informed of the rights, accommodations, and resources already available to them under federal law.
The U.S. Senate failed to advance the legislation after the cloture vote fell short 47–45, below the 60 votes required to proceed. Sen. Ossoff voted to not even allow consideration or debate concerning this life-affirming legislation.
Sen. Ossoff’s vote is consistent with his long record of support for unlimited abortion, including opposition to common-sense protections for unborn children and repeated support for legislation that would allow abortion through all nine months of pregnancy while overriding state-level safeguards.
“Senator Ossoff’s vote against even debating the Pregnant Students’ Rights Act is profoundly disappointing and sends the wrong message to women in Georgia,” said a Georgia Life Alliance spokesperson. “Students facing an unexpected pregnancy have a right to this information, and they deserve every opportunity to thrive academically while stepping into motherhood.”
“Rather than backing a bill that simply informed pregnant students of existing rights and resources, Sen. Ossoff again sided with an abortion lobby that treats pregnancy as a problem to be eliminated rather than a life to be supported,” said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. “No student should ever feel forced to choose between continuing her education and carrying her child to term.”
The Pregnant Students’ Rights Act would have required colleges and universities to clearly and consistently communicate existing protections for pregnant and parenting students. The legislation did not impose new regulations, penalties, or compliance burdens on schools.
By opposing cloture, Sen. Ossoff voted to block a measure that focused solely on transparency and awareness - one that would have helped ensure women are not pressured toward abortion because they’ve been led to believe motherhood is incompatible with academic success. A Culture of Life is one in which pregnancy is never a barrier to higher education; it’s time we prioritize support over silence.
Georgia Life Alliance is the largest pro-life group in the state and the only state affiliate to National Right to Life.
