Surrogacy Contract Enforcement Conditions

Current understanding

Federal legislation has been introduced to impose conditions on the enforcement of surrogacy contracts, a domain historically governed almost entirely by state family and contract law. HR9868 (119th Congress, introduced) would set federal parameters affecting when and how such agreements can be enforced, with implications for intended parents, gestational carriers, and the ART clinics and attorneys who facilitate these arrangements.
