The bill title is "Women’s Health Protection Act of 2025," the official title is "To protect a person's ability to determine whether to continue or end a pregnancy, and to protect a health care provider's ability to provide abortion services," and the latest action shown is referral to committee after introduction on 06/24/2025.

Bynum cosponsored the federal bill most directly aimed at codifying abortion rights, but as of the latest official action it remained only introduced and referred to committee, not enacted.

Ms. BYNUM said the Dobbs decision stripped women of reproductive healthcare rights and that "We must protect and expand reproductive freedom for women everywhere" and it is "time to end the damage of the Dobbs decision and restore a woman's right to choose."

In office, Bynum publicly reaffirmed support for restoring reproductive rights, but this was a statement rather than enacted federal law.

The official bill history for H.R. 12 shows it was introduced in the House on 06/24/2025 and referred to committee; the page does not show enactment or passage. Bynum is listed among the bill's cosponsors.

Bynum took a concrete legislative step by cosponsoring the federal abortion-rights bill, but the official record still shows only introduction and referral, not enactment.

Assessments

Bynum campaigned on defending reproductive rights and codifying Roe at the federal level, and in office she did take a concrete step by cosponsoring H.R. 12, the Women’s Health Protection Act of 2025. But the available congressional record shows only introduction and referral to committee, with no enactment or passage, so the promised federal outcome has not been delivered. Because she made a serious legislative attempt, effort credit is warranted even though the promise remains unfulfilled.

Bynum promised to defend reproductive rights and codify Roe v. Wade federally. In office, she cosponsored the Women's Health Protection Act of 2025 and made public statements supporting restoration of abortion rights, which counts as a serious legislative effort. However, the core promised outcome, federal codification of Roe-level abortion protections, has not been enacted; the bill remained introduced and referred to committee in the same term.
