Speaker Johnson Takes Stand Against IVF Protection: Report

Republican Speaker Mike Johnson will not be putting any bills on the House floor to protect the right of Americans to access a decades-old assisted reproduction process known as in-vitro fertilization, or IVF. Recently, at least two Senate Republicans have also blocked legislation to protect IVF after Democrats put up bills to support the procedure. Millions of babies have been born via IVF.

Speaking at the GOP retreat in West Virginia Thursday, Johnson said “he does not think Congress has a role to play when it comes to IVF, as some members have been pushing for in wake of Alabama ruling. But [he] says all Republicans support access to IVF,” according to CNN Capitol Hill reporter Melanie Zanona.
