Vote them out. EVERY vote counts. God they're horrible.

[tamaradiana]

I'm so sick of the religious wing of the Republican party!

[boxergirl]

But but but let the taxpayers pay millionaires and billionaires with free money & no taxes for them just the little people

[ceirragault]

Really taking that whole “if the military wanted you to have a family they’d issue you one” thing seriously huh 😂

[rob]

People the trump Republicon politicians of the freedom caucus must be voted out of office immediately

[USARMY]

They sure love us, to death in some cases.

So... why should the VA pay for ivf when they dont pay for half the stuff veterans need just to survive the day to day life they have... and it shouldnt be subsidized

[SaintRaphel]

I'm a veteran and I completely agree with them

[oclockOnTheDot]

I don’t understand. If they are pro-life and we are below birth replacement then why can’t the VA assist with reproductive treatment? I had a medically necessary hysterectomy. 😔 I want a baby, they are punishing women who don’t want a baby and hoping to hurt those who do?

[TheHtownplumber]

The VA shoul lad be for Veterans that actually got injured during combat . Not these Pog’s that got hurt at their job at 7-11

Or maybe the military, or government in general, just shouldn’t use tax money to impregnate women and abort fetuses at all. Or did I fall asleep after the discussions about Snipers, FORECON and….was there a “FORCE MULTIPLIERS: Enhancing Battlefield Capabilities from the Strategic Deployment of Impregnated Forces?” I mean, I get it. But, I don’t get it. I definitely missed it. Got it?

Hit the pause button and read the first paragraph of the letter. She doesn’t talk about what’s in the letter.

А у нас ЭКО оплачивает государство.
Если 1й раз неудачно- то платит семья.
Но не критичную сумму
Понятно???? У нас страна самая лучшая 🤗😛

[geojetson]

What has joementia done for them the last 50 yrs in office???

[SaintRaphel]

Just remember when christianity was the basis of the abolitionist Movement

[georgekolbinskie]

what a crybaby. It is morally dubious and should not be paid for by taxpayers.

[carlosspiceyweiner]

It’s the VA, not your babies daddy administration. The VA is for service connected injuries, not because someone wants a baby.

[jamesrehak]

Sounds like they are on the right track.

[HeyMikeyLikesIt]

In order to get this type of treatment from the VA you would have to be 100% disabled and Did this disability happen because of military service? What’s the percent of 100% disabled Veteran females wanting IVF? If you can prove your disability to the VA that an injury happened on duty and in your medical records, then you should get IVF. But if you just want kids…..that’s on YOUR dime. You’re making your argument sound like it affects every Veteran. VA isn’t suppose to perform this. It’s for the service connected disabilities and 100% disabled veterans. Where does IVF fit in? I oppose this….it already takes me a year to get a dental appointment. I want to see a list of females Veterans, that Are 100% disabled that want this done! So 100% disabled females want this done and are healthy enough to carry a baby for 9 months, when they are complaining they can’t carry 10 pounds. No, no, no…sorry, I ain’t buying this argument. Actually, I’ll only cave on allowing IVF, only if the females are 100% VA disabled……. But, Like I said Who wants to carry a baby at 100% disabled?
