    Alabama IVF ruling a political gift for Democrats, headache for
    Republicans

    An Alabama court ruling that frozen embryos created through fertility
    treatment are children has delivered an election-year opportunity for
    Democrats - and a political headache for Republicans.

    US President Joe Biden's party is already campaigning on the
    controversy, casting November's vote as a fight over reproductive
    rights.

    For Republicans, the row could pose an obstacle in their carefully
    laid plans to win back suburban women and swing voters.

    At least three fertility clinics in Alabama have paused in-vitro
    fertilisation (IVF) since last week's ruling.

    The all-Republican justices decided that frozen embryos created
    through IVF are considered children under state law.

    In response to AL Supreme Court IVF ruling, a Feb 23 NRSC memo
    "encourages Republican Senate candidates to clearly and concisely
    reject efforts by the government to restrict IVF."
