Is surrogacy good for families and society?

Dispatch Managing Editor Michael Reneau moderates a debate between Emily Zanotti and Elizabeth Nolan Brown on surrogacy: Is it good for women and families? How should the law reflect the broad disagreement on the ethics of surrogacy? Is the commercial surrogacy industry predatory toward women? Should we have a surrogate bill of rights?
