House Rep. Mooney, Alexander X. [R-WV-2] WV R M001195 0 Providing Certainty for Progenitors Act of 2016 This bill amends the federal criminal code to make it a crime to have physical custody of a living human embryo and refuse to release the embryo for implantation in a willing implantee at the request of one of the progenitors of that embryo. A progenitor is an individual who provides an egg or a sperm cell from which an embryo is created. A violator is subject to a fine, up to three months in prison, or both.
