Colleges that get federal student aid money would have to tell students about help for carrying a pregnancy to term and caring for a baby after birth. They would also have to explain school accommodations and how to file a Title IX discrimination complaint.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Latest action on S. 3627: Cloture on the motion to proceed to the measure not invoked in Senate by Yea-Nay Vote. 47 - 45. Record Vote Number: 12. (CR S286)
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects pregnant students and students who may become pregnant at colleges that receive federal student aid money. It also affects colleges and universities because they would have new yearly notice duties. Campus health centers, counseling centers, Title IX offices, and student orientation staff may need to help keep the information easy to find and up to date.
Why this matters: Pregnant students may not know what help or rights they have, and this bill would make schools give that information clearly. It could help students find support to stay enrolled, manage pregnancy needs, and care for a baby after birth. It could also make complaint options clearer when a student believes a school discriminated because the student chose to carry a pregnancy to term. The bill does not say whether these notices would change student outcomes; that would depend on how schools carry them out.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
