The left is going to kill future humans and nothing will stop them. But not only that, they will also make sure that your tax dollars pay for the killings, too.

You know, to enhance military readiness.

It’s almost hard to fathom how evil the left is.

Lets see, what costs the military more - a soldier going on pregnancy leave, then subsequent maternal leave for months, or the military paying for an abortion?

The policy seems to be in the public interest. Tuberville getting his way would have cost the military more in the long run. Less spending anywhere is a plus right now.

Well, to be specfic, it's the military paying for any travel associated with the abortion. The medical procedures is paid for out of the earnings of the soldier.

Either of those are not even registered as pocket change in the overall DoD expenditures.

I agree with Tuberville's premise, but he went about it the wrong way.

Roger that, I should have clarified as well, sorry about that. It seems fair to me. The military just is picking up the tab in the case that the procedure isn't available in the state where the soldier is located.

Laws are for the little people... and Deep State opponents.

Sounds like the republicans had a little come-to-Jesus meeting with Tuberville on the subject of optics in an election year.

What would be the right way?

Good. It's absurd that one person was able to hold up 400+ appointments for our military.
