Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis has introduced two bipartisan bills alongside her colleagues to expand access to women’s health care. The first, H.R. 8119, the HOPE with Fertility Services Act, aims to increase access to infertility treatments—including IVF—and ensure patients can receive the care they need.
Expand insurance coverage and access to infertility treatments, including IVF and related fertility care.

Evidence
Malliotakis said she introduced H.R. 8119, the HOPE with Fertility Services Act, to expand coverage for infertility treatments, including IVF and related fertility care.
Assessments
Malliotakis took a direct same-term legislative step toward the promise by introducing the bipartisan HOPE with Fertility Services Act in March 2026, and the bill closely matches the pledge to expand insurance coverage and access to IVF and related fertility care. But the evidence provided shows proposal and advocacy, not enactment or implemented coverage expansion. In the federal House context, sponsoring or introducing a matching bill is meaningful candidate credit, but without passage or delivered policy results it does not count as fulfillment. Because she made a serious legislative attempt that still had not delivered the promised outcome, this scores as never with effort credit.
