Mackowiak says on Inside Texas Politics that he's heard of no serious discussion at the state legislative level to ban IVF.
Matt Mackowiak also says Democrats have the current advantage on abortion issue, but maintaining it through the general election could be difficult.TEXAS, USA — While some county-level Republican parties in Texas have either adopted, or are considering, resolutions that would ban in vitro fertilization, IVF, state GOP leaders have, so far, appeared hesitant to support such language.
