The FBI has labeled the bombing of a reproductive health care clinic in Palm Springs , California , as an act of terrorism.

The clinic, American Reproductive Centers , offered in vitro fertilization, egg freezing, surrogacy, LGBTQ+ family building, and other services.

A 25-year-old man, Guy Edward Bartkus , used a car bomb in the attack, which greatly damaged the clinic.

The attack comes as access to IVF has come under threat from some Republicans across the country.
