employers were not obligated to accommodate her needs.

Act require employers to provide reasonable accommodations to disabled
employers (including most employees with medical complications arising 8.______

itself is not considered a disability, employers are not obligated to
accommodate most pregnant workers in any way.

they are perfectly capable of performing — either put on unpaid leave
or simply fired — when they request an accommodation to help obtain 9.______

breadwinner. They are disproportionately low-income women, often in
mentally demanding jobs with little flexibility. 10.______ [br]
