It appears there might be a misunderstanding. The More Opportunities for Moms to Succeed (MOMS) Act, introduced by Senator Katie Britt, does not create a national registry of pregnant women. Instead, it aims to establish a federal website called pregnancy.gov that provides resources for pregnant women and mothers. Here are the key points:
Purpose of the Bill
- The MOMS Act seeks to offer support and resources to pregnant and postpartum women.
- It does not require pregnant women to visit the website or provide their contact information to the federal government.
- The website is intended to serve as a clearinghouse for relevant resources available to pregnant and postpartum individuals.
Abortion-Related Information
- Notably, the website’s resource list excludes information from organizations that provide abortions.
- Critics have raised concerns about data privacy due to the bill’s ambiguity regarding user information.
