Italy passes anti-surrogacy law that effectively bars gay couples from becoming parents
Briefly

The amended law classifies surrogacy as a rare universal crime that transcends borders, marking a significant shift in Italy's legal landscape around family and reproduction.
Critics argue that the law will chiefly impact same-sex couples, with Alessia Crocini stating, "The people who can't hide this are gay couples. This is about [targeting] gay fathers."
The legislation has implications for Italian citizens abroad, criminalizing work by doctors and staff in foreign fertility clinics, which supporters believe is key to its enforcement.
Sen. Susanna Campione from Meloni's party articulated a naturalistic view, asserting, "It is nature that decides this, not us," reinforcing the law's conservative agenda.
