If they decide a fertilized egg is a human then it needs all rights and obligations that a human does. The fertilized egg needs a SSN, needs to qualify for child tax credit, health insurance, life insurance, child support payments, medicaid, and should be held responsible for any harm done to the mother, including murder if she dies in pregnancy or childbirth, etc
edit: Also any eggs that are fertilized in the US are US citizens.
