Michigan organization fighting for rights of parents who use gestational carrier
“I had to momentarily breakdown,” said Michigan Fertility Alliance Founder Stephanie Jones.
That’s how she felt when she heard about a Michigan couple being forced to adopt their biological babies. This happened after they were born through a gestational carrier because of a decades-old anti-surrogacy law in the state.
Jones, who lives in Grand Blanc, is fighting to change that old law.
“Discrimination, defeat, and helplessness. That’s what I really try to explain to people, to be told that you can’t, or that you can’t be granted rights to your children, because of some silly law that was written in the 80s,” Jones said.
