Conservatives want to allow pregnant women to park in disabled spaces
November 18, 2025
The conservative movement pushing for more U.S. births and bigger families has a new target for its vision: parking lots.
Lawmakers, largely in red states, want to allow pregnant women to use parking spots set aside for disabled people under federal law, regardless of medical necessity. That has drawn opposition from disability advocates, who say the measures violate the Americans With Disabilities Act and allow people without disabilities to use special spaces that are already scarce.
