A bill introduced by a Texas lawmaker outlines reporting requirements for in vitro fertilization (IVF) providers, including the number of embryos created, how many are discarded, and the reasons for their destruction — whether due to undesired gender, a handicap, or other preferential factors.
House Bill (HB) 3132, introduced by Rep. Daniel Alders (R-Tyler), is among the first IVF-related legislation filed by a Republican during the 89th Legislative Session, while a plethora of such bills have been filed by Democratic members.
