Pentagon Will Pay For Service Members To Travel To Obtain Abortions

  • The Pentagon is picking up the tab for service members who opt to travel to obtain abortions, according to a new policy directive by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.
  • Like the rest of the Pentagon, the new policy will be funded by taxpayer dollars.
  • “Our Service members and their families are often required to travel or move to meet our staffing, operational, and training requirements,” Austin wrote in a memo unveiling the policy. “Such moves should not limit their access to reproductive health care.”
