Republican Plan for Abortion and IVF Restriction

Republican politicians are pushing for extreme anti-abortion laws that could result in severe restrictions on IVF treatments. The Heritage Foundation and GOP are advocating for laws that equate fertilized eggs to full personhood, a move that could criminalize discarding non-viable fertilized eggs during IVF procedures.
