Latest Action · June 24, 2026
Referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and in addition to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
The Federal Workforce Reproductive Rights Protection Act would protect federal employees' access to reproductive healthcare by restricting where the government can relocate federal agencies and how it can assign federal workers. The bill requires the Comptroller General to maintain a list of states with abortion restrictions enacted or enforced after June 2022, and prohibits federal agencies from moving headquarters or establishing new facilities in those states, except for maintaining existing facilities or providing public services. Federal employees could decline assignments to listed states and cannot be required to move there for promotions or appointments without a valid waiver related to their medical or reproductive needs. The legislation would also require agencies to cover travel costs for federal employees and their eligible dependents to access reproductive healthcare outside their home state, provide up to 21 days of paid administrative leave for abortion-related travel, and ban agencies from investigating or considering abortion-related activities during security clearance reviews or personnel decisions. The bill takes effect 60 days after enactment and includes strong anti-retaliation protections for employees who use these new benefits.
