On Wednesday, U.S. Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) joined Senators Katie Britt (R-Ala.) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas), along with their Senate GOP colleagues, in a joint statement supporting continued nationwide access to in vitro fertilization.

The senators wrote, “Senate Democrats have embraced a Summer of Scare Tactics — a partisan campaign of false fearmongering intended to mislead and confuse the American people. In vitro fertilization is legal and available in every state across our nation. We strongly support continued nationwide access to IVF, which has allowed millions of aspiring parents to start and grow their families.”
