A coalition of 15 state attorneys general has sent a letter to Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough opposing a rule adopted by the Biden administration requiring abortion access and abortion counseling at Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) facilities.
In September, the VA adopted a rule allowing pregnant veterans or their eligible dependents to undergo abortions in cases of rape, incest, or if the health of the mother is in jeopardy. The rule was designed to bypass state laws that may prohibit such abortions.
In their letter, the attorneys general warn that they will not allow the VA to circumvent state rules surrounding abortion and the protection of preborn children.
“We will not allow you to use this rule to erect a regime of elective abortions that defy state laws,” they wrote. “We stand ready to move decisively against departures from the rule’s terms or its promises. And we will enforce our duly enacted state laws and hold you accountable for violations of federal law. Those who perform abortions based on the interim final rule — and in defiance of state or federal laws — do so at their own risk.”

“This administration needs to stop circumventing rulings from the United States Supreme Court to push its liberal agenda,” West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey said in a statement. “The issue of abortion are [sic] left up to the states, and the Supreme Court was very clear on that.”
In response, a VA spokesperson told Military.com that it will continue to offer “a full range of reproductive health services” — which includes abortion.
“As VA Secretary Denis McDonough has said, ‘Pregnant veterans and VA beneficiaries deserve to have access to world-class reproductive care when they need it most. That’s what our nation owes them, and that’s what we at VA will deliver,’” spokesperson Terrence Hayes said.
Fifteen attorneys general signed the letter, including those from Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and West Virginia.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Leftwing billionaire George Soros bankrolls everything evil – most recently the 75 pro-criminal “Soros district attorneys” who have transformed America’s most dynamic cities into degraded, crime-infested hellscapes of skyrocketing violent crime. Soros also funds drug legalization, euthanasia, open borders, globalism, Black Lives Matter, “defunding the police,” devaluing America’s currency and destroying her sovereignty. But why?
Whistleblower magazine reveals and explores the stunning truth: Soros, an atheist, literally says he’s “some kind of god,” obsessed with re-creating the world in his image. Here are a few actual quotes from Soros: “If truth be known, I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood…” “It is a sort of disease when you consider yourself some kind of god, the creator of everything, but I feel comfortable about it now since I began to live it out.” “You know, in my personal capacity I’m not actually a selfless philanthropic person. I’ve very much self-centered.” “I am kind of a nut who wants to have an impact.” “Next to my fantasies about being God, I also have very strong fantasies of being mad. … I have a lot of madness in my family. So far I have escaped it.”
Except he hasn’t “escaped it.” Not only is Soros totally mad, but he’s imposing his insanity on America. See Soros and the leftwing world he has created and funded as never before in “THE BILLIONAIRE WHO THINKS HE’S ‘GOD’: Why George Soros is obsessed with destroying America.”
