Right now, if a servicewoman or a military dependent is a survivor of rape or incest, she will have to pay out of pocket for the abortion care she needs, unlike her civilian counterparts who also get health insurance through the federal government.
The decision to have an abortion is personal and should only be made by women not by politicians.
Send a letter to your congresspersons at StandWithServiceWomen.org or at ThisIsPersonal.org.
