Sen. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) blasted her Senate colleagues for voting against a bill she believes would help mothers across the country.

Britt Introduced The Expanding Mothers' Opportunities for Success (MOMS) Act, passed in May, would provide support to women during pregnancy and after birth, including before, during, and after birth and during early childhood development. The bill would also expand access to financial and medical resources and assistance aimed at supporting mothers and their children.

The bill failed to pass the Senate on Tuesday.

“I'm disappointed that Senate Democrats blocked passage of the MOMS Act today,” Britt said on X. “This commonsense bill would help vulnerable women and families. [Senate GOP] My colleagues and I will continue to fight for concrete solutions like the MOMS Act that will do just that.”

Since the bill was introduced, Britt and others have had to counter misinformation about the bill. Salon.comfalsely claimed the MOMS Act would “launch a pregnancy tracking database.”

Britt spoke on the Senate floor Tuesday about the importance of the bill.

“This legislation is further evidence that we can simultaneously advocate for life, women, and families,” Britt said. “The MOMS Act promotes a holistic culture of life — nurturing and strengthening families, and ensuring mothers have the opportunities and resources they and their children need to thrive and achieve the American Dream.”

The senator said the bill proves her party is a pro-family party.

“This is a perfect example of why I believe the Republican Party is the party of family,” she said. “What you'll hear after I introduce the motion to pass the MOMS Act will say a lot about whether Democrats can say the same about their party. They're trying to answer that question: Are they interested in scaring women and families, or are they interested in helping women and families? Personally, I'm proud to support women through their season of motherhood and I'm honored to introduce this pro-life, pro-women, pro-family bill into law.”
