Arizona Rep. Trent Franks harassed his office staff asking them to be a surrogate to bear his child. He and his wife already had twins from surrogacy eight years earlier. I would feel more sympathetic if it weren’t that he retaliated when one woman rebuffed him and that another said he claimed to be in love with her. Also, having gone through surrogacy before, I would presume he knows it isn’t about asking your staff to let you get them pregnant.
