About this episode

Olivia Maurel discusses her opposition to surrogacy and its implications on children and women.

Morning Wire speaks with Olivia Maurel, an anti-surrogacy advocate who was “commissioned” through the practice. Born in the United States, but raised by foreign parents, Maurel tells how her personal experience shaped her opposition to the global surrogacy industry. She exposes how surrogacy operates as a contract-driven marketplace that commodifies both women and children, and contends that no amount of regulation can address what she views as the core harm of intentionally separating a child from its birth mother.
