Pregnancy discrimination is widespread in corporate America. Some employers deny expecting mothers raises, others fire them before they can take maternity leave. For women who work in physically demanding jobs, discrimination often comes with higher stakeshttps://nyti.ms/2CY1F50

The only federal law protecting expecting mothers is the Pregnancy Discrimination Act. It says a company only has to accommodate pregnant women’s requests if it is already doing so for other employees who are “similar in their ability or inability to work” http://nyti.ms/2CY1F50 pic.twitter.com/9YtGjJTQ8l

In every congressional session since 2012, a group of lawmakers has introduced a bill for pregnant workers that would require employers to accommodate those whose health depends on it. The legislation has never had a hearing.http://nyti.ms/2CY1F50
