Some fertility clinics and transport services are worried about shipping embryos following the Alabama Supreme Court’s ruling that embryos are children.

Some fertility clinics and shipping services plan to hold off on sending frozen embryos from Alabama to other states as they weigh the legal implications of an Alabama court ruling that says embryos created through in vitro fertilization are children.

Many doctors and patients are confused about which elements of fertility treatment are restricted, following the Alabama Supreme Court decision last week, and at least three Alabama providers have paused IVF services. Some IVF patients have considered moving their embryos out of the state to continue the process elsewhere, only to learn that the option isn’t available to them right now.

    I would rather more blue voters move to these red states and flip them. But you know, convincing 1 million of California’s 40 million to move to Alabama is a tall order.

      As a blue voter in a red state (I grew up here) there’s a real problem with that of you have to live here. Also if Californians could please stop coming here actually that would be nice. California conservatives keep coming here and acting like it’s some great place where they can be super conservative and talk down to us midwestern yokels. Like motherfucker you moved to one of the bluest cities in the Midwest, it’s not our fault our state suffered brain drain and went red as a result, also quit with your Orange County bullshit.
