MANCHIN VOTES TO BLOCK ILLEGAL VA ABORTION RULE

Press Release

Date: April 19, 2023
Location: Washington, D.C.
Issues: Abortion Veterans

"The VA's current policy is a blatant violation of federal law. Since 1976, there has been bipartisan consensus on the Hyde Amendment because most Americans agree that we should not be using taxpayer dollars to provide abortion services. This rule exceeds the VA's statutory authority and is another example of the Biden Administration's growing pattern of prioritizing a political agenda over Constitutional processes. I always have and always will fight to maintain the commonsense protections we've had in place for decades to ensure federal tax dollars cannot be used to fund abortions."
