Attorneys General Challenge Joe Biden’s Plan to Turn VA Clinics Into Abortion Businesses
Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch, who was instrumental in overturning Roe v. Wade, and 14 other state attorneys general warned the Biden administration Thursday that they will sue if VA hospitals start aborting unborn babies in violation of their state pro-life laws.
Bloomberg Law reports their letter to U.S. Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough said the Biden administration cannot “override” their abortion bans through federal land, citing the U.S. Supreme Court ruling Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health.
On Sept. 9, President Joe Biden issued a new rule that requires Department of Veterans Affairs hospitals to provide taxpayer-funded abortions “regardless of state restrictions” – a clear violation of the law, the attorneys generals said.
