Love Them Both Act of 2025
Summary
What This Bill Does
The Love Them Both Act is a targeted limit on regulatory implementation of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act. It does not repeal the PWFA's general pregnancy-accommodation statute. Instead, it prohibits the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Office of Congressional Workplace Rights from finalizing, implementing, or enforcing any PWFA regulation under section 105 that applies to abortion or to coverage of abortion or abortion-related services. The practical effect is to stop federal workplace-pregnancy accommodation rules from being used to require abortion-related accommodations or coverage.
Who Benefits and How
Employers objecting to abortion-related accommodation mandates benefit because federal PWFA regulations could not enforce that category of requirement. Anti-abortion advocacy organizations benefit because the bill restricts abortion-related interpretation of the PWFA. Congressional employers benefit from parallel limits on Office of Congressional Workplace Rights enforcement. State policymakers restricting abortion benefit indirectly because federal pregnancy-accommodation rules would have less abortion-related reach.
Who Bears the Burden and How
Workers seeking abortion-related workplace accommodations bear the burden because the bill blocks federal PWFA regulatory protection for that need. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission must narrow or halt PWFA abortion-related rulemaking and enforcement. The Office of Congressional Workplace Rights must avoid implementing or enforcing abortion-related PWFA regulations for congressional workplaces. Reproductive-rights advocacy organizations lose a federal regulatory pathway for arguing that PWFA accommodations include abortion-related services.
