(LifeSiteNews) — Representative Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) and Rep. Judy Chu (D-Monterey Park) put forward a bill called the Equal Access to Reproductive Care Act on June 22, but it hasn’t received much attention until now. H.R. 8190 makes “assisted reproduction as a tax deductible medical expense” and “defines assisted reproduction as any methods, treatments, procedures, and services for effectuating a pregnancy and bringing it to term, and treats it as medical care of the taxpayer, the taxpayer’s spouse, or dependent to the extent that they intend to take legal custody or responsibility for any children born as a result of such assisted reproduction.” The primary intent of the bill is to ensure that same-sex couples can purchase children.
The bill is the result of a collaboration between RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association, the National Center for Lesbian Rights, Children of Lesbians and Gays Everywhere, GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders, Family Equality, and Men Having Babies, which sent out a press release this month celebrating the intent and likely impact of the bill.
