Summary: The Center for Reproductive Rights opposes the proposed rule on Excepted Fertility Benefits, arguing that it is arbitrary and capricious, prioritizes employer flexibility over patient access, and fails to provide adequate consumer protections. They urge the Departments to withdraw the rule and instead mandate non-discriminatory, comprehensive fertility health care coverage, including IVF, across all public and private insurance plans.
