This Act covers same-sex couples who use a non-anonymous donor through an Irish...

McGriff, 38, who saw primary custody of his two school-age daughters awarded to his ex-wife at a trial in Idaho Falls, Idaho, earlier this year, is gay. "There's no way you can convince me that that judge didn't go into that courtroom with the preconceived notion that there's no way those kids can be there with him because he's...
