Texas Court Rules Against Abortion for Surrogate Baby
The Spin
Right narrative
Baby Gabriel deserves a fighting chance and Texas stepped up when his own intended parents tried to deny him life-saving heart surgery. Commercial surrogacy treats babies like defective products to be returned when they are not perfect, and this case proves it. Every child, born or unborn, deserves protection from adults willing to discard them over a treatable diagnosis.
Left narrative
Gestational contracts exist because intended parents have the right to make medical decisions for their child, and Texas law barging in sets a dangerous precedent for surrogacies nationwide. Under the guise of protecting life, the state is blatantly ignoring the real trauma faced by surrogates and parents, those who need access to full access to reproductive choices when dealing with devastating defect diagnoses.
