Michigan Democrats are focused on safeguarding Michiganders’ reproductive and fertility rights. We are putting people first by giving families and individuals the opportunity to decide when, how and if to start or grow a family.

“Michigan stands in the minority of states that require parents to go through a long and arduous process of adopting their own children born via surrogacy. This issue was brought to my attention by constituents and I have been working to address it for years… It is high time our laws evolve to mirror the advances made in assisted reproductive technology, and we are committed to empowering Michiganders to pursue parenthood without unnecessary hurdles.” – Senate Majority Leader Winnie Brinks
