Sep 1, 2025· Comment from LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF THE SPACE COAST on VA-2025-VHA-0073-0002· VA-2025-VHA-0073-19350

Our veterans deserve the best in medical care. They have risked their lives serving around the world and in this country. Women veterans are NOT second class veterans and their health care matters as much as men's healthcare! Women are at risk of attack from immoral and angry anti-women men around the world. Men get women pregnant! Therefore it only makes sense that women need access to women's healthcare that includes reproductive care/abortion care. If men get complete healthcare, then women need complete healthcare. DO NOT EXCLUDE HEALTHCARE FROM OUR VETERANS!

Abstract

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is proposing to reinstate the full exclusion on abortions and abortion counseling from the medical benefits package, which was removed in 2022. Before that time, this exclusion had been firmly in place since the medical benefits package was first established in 1999. VA is also proposing to reinstate the exclusions on abortion and abortion counseling for Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs (CHAMPVA) that were removed in 2022. We take this action to ensure that VA provides only needed medical services to our nation's heroes and their families.
