UN Calls to Ban Surrogacy, Trump Abandons IVF, and Texas Cracks Down on Abortion Pills!

UN Special Rapporteur Reem Alsalem has released a major report urging all 193 UN member states to ban surrogacy, exposing exploitation in the billion-dollar industry where women often receive only 10–25% of fees and face serious health risks like preeclampsia and gestational hypertension, as well as the trauma of being separated from their children. At the same time, the Trump administration is backing away from IVF mandates and promoting Restorative Reproductive Medicine (RRM), a controversial alternative that emphasizes lifestyle changes, hormone therapy, and surgery; critics warn it delays effective treatment, while groups like the Heritage Foundation push new laws, with Arkansas already requiring insurance coverage. In Texas, lawmakers are cracking down on chemical abortion pill trafficking, stepping up enforcement as abortion access shifts online. Stay tuned for Catholic analysis and pro-life commentary on the latest developments shaping the future of life, family, and faith.
