Our lawyers are waging strategic fights that make clear what is at stake for people who can become pregnant and seek to bolster our fundamental rights to control our lives, futures, and destinies.

“People still have a lot of stereotypes about whether mothers are good workers, and those come into play when women are pregnant,” said Emily Martin, general counsel and vice president for Workplace Justice at nonprofit National Women’s Law Center. “They may assume, without realizing they’re assuming, that once she gets pregnant, her job is not her priority and may treat her accordingly, and that’s discrimination.”
