The Biden re-election campaign is ramping up its criticism of former President Trump, attributing the Alabama Supreme Court's recent in vitro fertilization (IVF) ruling to Trump-appointed Supreme Court justices. The contentious decision, declaring embryos as children under state law, has sent shockwaves through the medical community, prompting the University of Alabama-Birmingham to temporarily halt IVF treatments over fears of legal ramifications.

Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Biden's campaign manager, pulled no punches, accusing MAGA Republicans of intrusive interference in personal family decisions, spanning from contraception to IVF.

Wade overturn.
