Risk of Pregnancy “Not Related” to Pregnancy

So rules the 8th Circuit, which clearly does not realize that all women of child-bearing age are “affected by pregnancy”, because they run the risk of becoming pregnant.

I love decisions like this, because they don’t require me to resort to any sort of weird leftist legal theory to critique the results. The 8th Circuit ignored the plain meaning of the Pregnancy Discrimination Act here, and deserve to be reversed en banc because of it.
