chief justice was downright gleeful.

He quoted Genesis in his — I’m sorry, his concurring opinion — in the AL ruling that turned on its head by defining as children.

A third clinic has halted treatment as the fallout from last week’s state Supreme Court ruling that frozen are legally continues to disrupt IVF access across the state.
The Center for Reproductive Medicine in Mobile, 1 of just 7 IVF clinics statewide, announced Thurs that it had paused IVF procedures in light of the court ruling.

Mark Nix, president & CEO of the clinic’s parent co, Infirmary Health, said in a Thurs statement the court decision “has sadly left us w/no choice.”
“We understand the burden this places on deserving families who want to bring babies into this world & who have no alternative options for conceiving,” he added.
The number of clinics providing comprehensive treatment in has now been slashed by nearly half since the ’s Feb 16 ruling.

Heads up! If you live in Alabama and have frozen embryos stored at a fertilization clinic, you have a good case for claiming them as dependents for tax purposes now. Get those child tax credits!

Proceed directly to the Social Security Administration and have a social security number assigned to each embryo.

Apply for food stamps, Medicaid, and other social assistance based on your new, higher number of dependents.

The Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos conceived via IVF are considered “children” under the Wrongful Death of a Minor Act. The ruling reverses a decision by a lower court that dismissed a wrongful death lawsuit involving three couples undergoing fertility treatments https://www.healthline.com/health-news/alabama-ruled-ivf-frozen-embryos-are-people-what-this-means-post-roe#:~:text=The%20Alabama%20Supreme%20Court%20ruled,three%20couples%20undergoing%20fertility%20treatments.

Bestowing personhood on IVF embryos just seems crazy and absurd to me. Someone needs to tell the supremes that they are national laughingstocks.
