After Overturning Roe v. Wade, Will IVF Be America’s Next Culture War?

Season 2024 Episode 7008 | 17m 58s

In the U.S., more than 90,000 IVF babies are delivered each year. The practice is not only driving a wedge between political parties, but is creating division within the GOP as well. The Economist's Sacha Nauta explains how Republicans who oppose abortion rights are struggling with the moral argument to ban IVF. Nauta joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss the potential impact on the upcoming election.
