Congressman Matt Rosendale (MT-02) has filed an amendment to H.R. 8774, the Department of Defense Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2025. The amendment, identified as Amendment #112, seeks to defund assisted reproductive technology, including any infertility treatments or technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF), with the aim of protecting human life.

“While I feel for couples that are unable to have children, the practice of IVF is morally wrong, and I refuse to support any legislation that condones its use,” said Rep. Rosendale. “My amendment will strip funding for this practice, which is responsible for the destruction of life to the tune of hundreds of thousands of children a year. If you are opposed to abortion, you should be opposed to the practice of IVF, which destroys twice as much life as Planned Parenthood yearly.”
