Restore and protect access to reproductive health care, including contraception, and preserve individuals' ability to make private health care decisions.

I will never stop fighting to restore and protect access to reproductive health care and ensure all individuals can make their own private health care decisions.

Pappas commits to keep fighting for reproductive health care access and private decision-making.

Congress.gov lists Rep. Chris Pappas [D-NH-1] as an original cosponsor of H.R.12 on 06/24/2025.

In the current Congress, Pappas cosponsored the Women’s Health Protection Act of 2025, a concrete legislative effort toward protecting abortion and reproductive health access. I found no newer official action in the 2026-06-07 to 2026-07-06 lookback window.

H.R.12 was introduced 06/24/2025, referred to House committees, and Congress.gov shows the bill status as Introduced.

The current federal vehicle Pappas cosponsored has not passed the House, Senate, or become law, so the broad promise remains unresolved rather than delivered.

Congress.gov says H.R.8296 prohibited governmental restrictions on abortion access; latest action was Senate receipt, and status was Passed House.

The bill’s substance aligned closely with restoring and protecting abortion access, but the official status shows it stopped after House passage and was not enacted.

The Senate cloture vote on proceeding to S.4381, a contraception-access bill, was rejected; it required three-fifths and received 51 yeas, 39 nays.

Even after House-side contraception efforts, the Senate did not advance a federal contraception protection bill, leaving that part of the commitment unresolved nationally.
