House passes bill mandating accommodations for pregnant workers

© Getty Images The House on Friday passed bipartisan legislation to ensure that workplaces provide reasonable accommodations for employees dealing with pregnancy or childbirth. The bill passed 315-101 with support from all Democrats and Republicans roughly split. A total of 99 Republicans joined with Democrats in support, while 101 voted against it. Under the legislation, workers would be granted the right to workplace accommodations due to physical limitations imposed by their pregnancies, such as providing seating and excusing them from having to lift heavy objects.
