Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., asked the Senate to unanimously pass his bill which aims to make IVF more affordable by decoupling Health Savings Accounts (HSA) from high-deductible health plans, and doubling the contribution limits on HSAs to allow families to save for things like IVF.

That bill was blocked by Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., who opposed it on the grounds that families struggling to pay for IVF would not benefit from the legislation.

There are other Republican-led IVF bills that have also been introduced in the Senate. Republicans could effort passage of those by unanimous agreement before the end of the week as well.

One such bill, led by Sens. Katie Britt and Ted Cruz, would make states ineligible to receive Medicaid funding if they banned access to IVF. Democrats blocked its passage in May, arguing it leaves too many loopholes.

It's weird, it's almost like if you put forth the exact bill that already failed you would think it would pass this time.....

The Rick Scott legislation is just a boon for the wealthy. An additional $8k in untaxed income every year forever for the rich.

Do you think the public should have an idea if Trump's IVF policy will succeed in his own party or no?
