Stand With Servicewomen

[sage]

Write to your members of Congress and ask them to give servicewomen the same health insurance coverage they give to other federal employees. With your help, we can make sure the women who risk their lives for our country are treated fairly and with respect.

Don't We care about Our military personnel?

[can you hear me now!]

really? people do care and may be like me, they need a bit more time to research the issue ... no offense, but I give everything the hairy eyeball test....since I work on a military installation I am not aware there may be a descrepancy....I'd also like to ensure this isn't another hair on fire over-reaction based on half a story....

Currently, a servicewoman is only covered for an abortion if the woman’s life is in danger. If the servicewoman is raped, she must pay out-of-pocket for an abortion procedure. Women covered by Medicaid, and soon Obamacare, are eligible for federally funded abortions in cases of rape or incest – but not female soldiers or dependents. If the servicewoman’s life is not in danger, and she is unable to pay for the abortion herself, the current law would have her carry an unwanted, rape induced pregnancy to full term; thereby forcing the woman to take a leave from her service.
