HB 5494 updates parentage laws for children conceived via assisted reproduction. It clarifies that an unmarried individual consenting to assisted reproduction is a legal parent, even without genetic ties. The bill removes gender-specific terms and expands legal recognition to intended parents based on intent rather than marital status.
