Brad Hoylman (D-Manhattan) and Assemblywoman Amy Paulin (D-Westchester), would legalize surrogacy through gestational pregnancies.<\/p>\n<p>In this process, the surrogate does not use her own biological eggs. Instead, she is artificially impregnated with someone\u2019s else\u2019s egg and sperm through in vitro fertilization. She then hands the baby over to the legal parents after birth.<\/p>\n<p>The proposal\u2019s chances increase if Cuomo throws his support behind it.<\/p>\n<p>The ban was put into place after the infamous 1993 \u201cBaby M\u201d case in New Jersey, when surrogate mother Mary Beth Whitehead reneged on a paid baby contract after she was inseminated with a man\u2019s sperm and gave birth. The courts then invalidated the contract.  But in that case, Whitehead was the biological mother because her own eggs were used.<\/p>\n<p>via <a href=\"http:\/\/nypost.com\/2015\/10\/19\/cuomo-might-lift-ban-on-commercial-surrogates-a-priority-for-gay-rights-advocates\/\" target=\"_blank\">NY Post<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-comments\" data-href=\"https:\/\/proudparenting.com\/?p=12310\" data-num-posts=\"10\" data-width=\"700\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cuomo administration is weighing whether to lift the ban on commercial surrogacy in New York \u2014 a top priority<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":12316,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,24],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>New York&#039;s Gov.
