How have the politics surrounding IVF treatments shifted recently in the United States?

The politics surrounding IVF have undergone significant changes, particularly after some states effectively restricted access to fertility treatments following abortion-related rulings. Initially, there was a split within the Republican Party on this issue, with some states going as far as outlawing IVF treatments, which drew considerable public attention. In response, there has been a pivot in political positioning. President Biden has signed an executive order aimed at improving IVF affordability and accessibility, asking agencies to develop policy recommendations to make fertility treatments more accessible. This represents a broader shift toward supporting reproductive technologies as politicians recognize the popularity of fertility treatment access among voters.
