"I take it as just Trump's way of saying he supports IVF," said Sen. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo., who emphasized that she also supports legal IVF, which is backed by 86% of Americans, according to a CBS News poll taken in March, when the Alabama court issued its ruling that threatened to end IVF.
"I don't know that we need to go so far as to mandate IVF coverage," Lummis said. "It just drives up the price of insurance. And so I don't know that I agree with him that it should be mandated."
Still, Lummis and all but two Senate Republicans voted to block a Democratic bill to protect access to IVF earlier this year, saying the proposal was too broad.
