If there’s one positive contribution to our collective future from the Nadya Suleman PR disaster, it’s that legislation has been proposed to implement government regulation on fertility clinics. California Senator Gloria Negrete McLeod says that the bill was originally inspired by the death of Donda West, Kanye West’s mother, after a liposuction and breast reduction surgery. It’s since been expanded to include regulation on fertility clinics like the one that implanted Nadya Suleman with multiple embryos—twice.  Sen. Gloria Negrete McLeod says she was chagrined to learn fertility clinics operate largely without state supervision, and that the one used by Suleman implanted six embryos despite the fact that the unemployed mother already had six other children. (One of those implanted embryos subsequently divided, producing twins.)
"It is alarming that the State of California has no one watching out for patients," said McLeod, a Democrat from Chino.
