In the wake of the Alabama Supreme Court’s IVF ruling, reproductive rights groups are sounding the alarm over personhood legislation in 14 states.
Following the recent Alabama Supreme Court ruling that embryos created through in vitro fertilization are considered children, reproductive rights groups are sounding the alarm over so-called fetal personhood bills in more than a dozen other states they say could be interpreted to restrict IVF treatments if enacted.
As of Friday, fetal personhood bills had been introduced in at least 14 state legislatures during their ongoing 2024 sessions, according to the Center for Reproductive Rights and the Guttmacher Institute, research groups that advocate for abortion rights. It marks the latest phase in an uptick in such bills since the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision overturned the national right an abortion in the U.S.
“Since Dobbs, we have seen a marked increase in personhood bills introduced in state legislatures across the country,” Elisabeth Smith, the director of state policy and advocacy at the Center for Reproductive Rights, said in a statement to NBC News.
Wait, isn’t IVF used for making more babies? What could be more pro-birth than that? Isn’t that what they want, people who truly want to have kids to make more babies? They’re that hard-up on wanting to keep people from terminating unwanted pregnancies that they’ll deny wanted pregnancies?
I’m reporting, not advocating.
The Religious Right has decided that the soul begins at conception. The second the egg and sperm join, that’s a human being and if you destroy it then you’ve committed murder. Since you don’t implant all the embryos you’re actually committing mass murder. Moreover, it’s a sin for a man to ejaculate anywhere except a womb. Ejaculating into a cup is as bad as beatiality or homosexulaism.
Oh wow, so ejaculating into a tissue or directly into the toilet is probably really really bad then, isn’t it? I mean, do people have ‘cum cups’ that they ejaculate into, is that a thing?
Do the safe thing and keep all your cum towels in the fridge just to be sure. You wouldn’t want to be labeled a half felon for half murdering millions of possible half people.
There was that guy who sold a gallon on eBay….
I could offer you a box in these trying times.
No. They want poor people being unable to not have kids so they and their kids stay poor. To maintain a cheap labor force.
You can see this, in they they also try to bar access to contraceptives; defund schools, over-fund zealous cops; make damned sure to criminalize the least little thing. Which then supplies prisons with slave labor.
I mean, the other reason is they hate minorities and women; and especially minority women; but there’s a profit motive too.
It’s about control, not morals. They want power. The end.
No, people doing IVF are probably in the wealthy-educated-liberal demographic, which is not the people they want having kids.
