The Federalist: IVF Won’t MAGA
President Trump's executive order on in vitro fertilization (IVF) aims to mandate access and reduce costs, but it risks dividing the Republican coalition and establishing costly entitlements. Critics argue that IVF does not address the root causes of infertility and could lead to unethical practices, including the commodification of children.
Moreover, the IVF industry is underregulated and has a history of serious errors, including embryo mix-ups. The push for IVF subsidies is seen as incompatible with pro-life values, as it often results in the destruction of embryos and raises ethical concerns about treating children as products.
