Reproductive Freedom for All Responds to Trump’s Executive Order on IVF

Washington, DC Today, President Trump announced an executive order on in-vitro fertilization (IVF). During Trump’s first administration, his actions led to the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which endangered access to reproductive health care and resulted in last year’s Alabama Supreme Court ruling that threatened access to IVF and led some providers in the state to pause access.

Reproductive Freedom for All President and CEO Mini Timmaraju released the following statement:

“Don’t be fooled by Trump and Republicans pretending to care about protecting IVF.  Not only have congressional Republicans supported anti-IVF and anti-birth control policies but they also enabled Trump to appoint Supreme Court justices that overturned Roe v. Wade. Access to fertility treatments like IVF is critical for people trying to start or grow their families – and it’s Democrats who have supported pro-IVF and pro-contraception policies. Those are the facts, and Republicans can’t escape them.”
