"Alabama Supreme Court's Controversial Ruling on Frozen Embryos"
The Alabama supreme court has ruled that frozen embryos are considered "children" under the state's existing law, allowing two wrongful death suits against a fertility clinic to proceed. This decision could have significant implications for assisted reproductive technology treatments and may increase the criminalization of expectant people. The ruling, which references God and the sanctity of life, has sparked debate and is expected to elevate the issue of personhood ahead of the 2024 elections.
