(Tyler Arnold/CNA/National Catholic Register) — President Donald Trump frustrated pro-life activists Tuesday afternoon with an executive order that directs the U.S. Domestic Policy Council to examine ways to lower costs for in vitro fertilization (IVF) and expand access to the procedure.
“I’ve been saying we’re going to do what we have to do,” Trump said in a news conference after signing the order. “I think the women and families [and] husbands are very appreciative of it.”
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a post on X that the order “directs policy recommendations to protect IVF access and aggressively reduce out-of-pocket and health plan costs for such treatments.”
