More GOP party platforms include anti-IVF language. Is surrogacy next?
Idaho Democratic state Rep. Brooke Green faced a cancer diagnosis fueled by estrogen and progesterone hormones following procedures involving IVF and surrogacy for her children. Opposition to both methods is rising, with Republicans in several states adding anti-IVF language to party platforms. Critics argue that discarding embryos during IVF is akin to abortion, connecting it to calls for codifying personhood rights for fetuses or embryos.
