"Alabama Supreme Court's Ruling on Frozen Embryos Sparks Fear and Controversy in Fertility Care"

The Alabama Supreme Court's ruling that frozen embryos should be considered children has sparked concerns about the future of fertility care for would-be parents in the state and raised complex legal questions with implications beyond Alabama. The decision has drawn criticism from the White House, with the press secretary expressing concerns about the impact of overturning Roe v.
