A federal judge struck down part of a Biden-era rule requiring employers to provide accommodations for workers' elective abortions.
The rule was put on hold just before it was scheduled to take effect in June 2024 due to judicial challenges from various stakeholders.
The judge ordered the EEOC to revise its regulations, making it clear that terminations of pregnancy related to medical conditions are still covered under the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.
This ruling represents another rollback of Biden-era policies as challenges continue to target various regulations on labor and employment issues.
