The US Senate is expected to hold a vote on Tuesday on a bill that would guarantee access to in vitro fertilization nationwide –- a move that comes as Democrats seek to pressure Republicans over the issue in the run-up to the November elections.

Democrats have sought to tie IVF to reproductive rights more broadly, arguing that the Supreme Court's 2022 decision overturning Roe v. Wade opened the door to restrictions on other procedures. Trump appointed three of the Supreme Court justices who voted to eliminate the national right to an abortion.
