Bill Summary
Would expand state tax credit for adoption expenses to include “adoption” of human embryos. This is an attempt to codify fetal personhood, which gives fetuses legal rights and threatens reproductive rights and healthcare. The embryos in questions are clumps of just a few cells which are often discarded as medical waste. Learn more about fetal personhood here.
