"Alabama Supreme Court Ruling Sparks Political Battle Over IVF Rights"

A majority of Americans oppose the idea of in vitro fertilization (IVF) embryos being considered children, following an Alabama ruling that sparked concerns about legal issues for discarding embryos. The ruling has led to fertility clinics halting treatments, affecting individuals like Liz Goldman, who needs IVF for a second child due to medical reasons. While some argue for more regulation in the reproductive industry, others worry about the impact on those dealing with infertility. Federal and state lawmakers are now proposing legislation to protect IVF services, while some leaders advocate for measures to safeguard frozen embryos from malpractice.
