Caroline Gleich: No place for the government in intimate, personal decisions

When I was 36, I made the decision to freeze my eggs and embryos for fertility preservation. There are many reasons why people undergo these treatments, but, no matter the circumstance, there is absolutely no place for the government in intimate, personal decisions like when and how to start a family. As Utah's next senator, I will fiercely defend reproductive freedoms and family values, because Utah women are tired of being pawns in these increasingly extreme political games.
