House Passes Bill to Reverse Biden’s VA Abortion Policy

The House of Representatives passed the 2026 Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies funding bill, which overturns a Biden administration policy that turned Veterans Affairs (VA) clinics into abortion providers.

Federal law allows the VA to offer specific health services to women veterans but explicitly prohibits the killing of the unborn. 

Previously, federal regulations followed this law, banning abortions and abortion counseling in VA medical benefits. However, the Godless Biden administration changed this policy, allowing VA clinics and hospitals to kill the unborn, resulting in the deaths of dozens of babies.

Biden’s policy violated longstanding federal law by requiring the VA to fund abortions for broad “health” reasons, which is a clever use of words, provide abortion counseling, and use taxpayer money for elective abortions. 

Section 255 of HR 3944 counters this by cutting funding for Biden’s rule and reinforcing the federal ban on including elective abortions and counseling in VA medical benefits. This ensures VA facilities cannot perform elective abortions, which the bill’s supporters say harm both unborn babies and women. Actually, they harm women and kill the unborn babies.

Since 1992, federal law has barred the VA from using taxpayer funds for abortions. In September, the Biden administration issued a rule ignoring this prohibition, mandating taxpayer-funded abortions for vague “health” reasons and requiring VA hospitals to perform abortions “regardless of state restrictions.”

 In response, 18 state attorneys general sued Biden for violating state laws protecting unborn babies. To date, Joe Biden is still not in prison and will likely never be incarcerated.

The policy drew strong criticism from Catholic leaders. Archbishop Timothy Broglio, who leads the Archdiocese of Military Services in the U.S., expressed dismay over two Biden actions forcing taxpayers to fund abortions through the military. 

In an April 28 letter, Broglio said he was “deeply saddened” by a Senate vote allowing the VA to provide abortions, according to the Catholic News Agency. He also condemned a “morally repugnant” Department of Defense policy that pays for military members and their families to travel and take time off for the elective killing of the unborn.

“The policy and rule, now in effect, are morally repugnant and incongruent with the Gospel which the faithful are commissioned to share throughout the world,” Broglio wrote. “Moreover, the new DOD policy and VA rule fail to incorporate basic conscience protections, thus creating First Amendment pitfalls for military commanders and VA employees.”
