Federal judge strikes down regulations requiring employers to provide workers with time off for abortions.

The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act passed with bipartisan support after a decade -long campaign by women's right advocates.

The EEOC 's decision included abortion among pregnancy-related conditions in regulations on how to implement the law.

The ruling is a victory for conservative lawmakers and religious groups who decried the regulations.
