"Alabama Legislature's Battle Over IVF Protection"
TL;DR Summary
The Alabama House and Senate have passed bills aimed at protecting in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments following a state Supreme Court ruling that classified frozen embryos as children. The bills, sponsored by Rep. Terri Collins and Sen. Tim Melson, seek to provide civil and criminal immunity to those involved in IVF services and are intended to prompt IVF clinics to reopen. The ruling has caused concern among patients, healthcare providers, and reproductive rights advocates, and the legislation is now awaiting approval from Republican Gov. Kay Ivey.
