In her National Review article “When IVF Met MAHA,” (July 2025), Leah Libresco Sargeant questions President Trump’s rallying cry for free IVF (In Vitro Fertilization).
She argues, “The harder it is to marry and have children early in life, the more likely it is that couples will struggle to conceive later. A humane culture is ordered to the physical realities of women’s bodies. It does not view the shifting of births to later in life as neutral.”
If humans took measures to prevent whales or giraffes from getting pregnant when their bodies were ready, that would be considered madness and an offense against the natural world. But we think it’s ok to ignore Mother Nature and refuse to support human mothers who follow the rule of nature, which is to have children while still a teenager.
