Tim Walz shared his family's personal history with infertility on August 6, 2024
Minnesota first lady Gwen Walz was forced to clarify late Monday that she used a different fertilization procedure — intrauterine insemination — to conceive their two children.
Walz, speaking about IVF to a boisterous crowd in Philadelphia when presidential nominee Kamala Harris unveiled him as her VP pick, had said, “This gets personal for me and my family.”It is unclear why the Minnesota governor waited so long to correct the record about his wife’s fertilization procedures.
In a clip once shared by the Harris campaign, he added, “If it was up to , I wouldn’t have a family because of IVF and the things that we need to do reproductive . My kids were born, you know, that way.”: If it was up to JD Vance, I wouldn't have a family because of IVF. Democrats are investing in prenatal care. We're the ones that are for universal pre-K. We're the ones that are providing school meals.
While both IVF and IUI are assisted reproductive technologies, they are generally viewed very differently in the anti-abortion movement.That aspect — embryo attrition — is generally the sticking point for many anti-abortion activists. They generally feel that the extra embryos should not be discarded.
