The Department of Veterans Affairs would be required to submit detailed data on abortions performed at its facilities under a bill introduced Tuesday by Sen. Tommy Tuberville.
The legislation is the latest effort by Tuberville, R-Ala., to clamp down on federal support for abortion access. He blocked senior military promotions for much of last year in a failed bid to force the Defense Department to drop its abortion access policy.
“Our veterans deserve a VA that is 100% focused on ensuring they receive timely and quality care, not on implementing [President] Joe Biden’s abortion-on-demand-agenda,” Tuberville said in a statement.
The bill would force the VA to submit quarterly reports on the number of abortions it facilitates, the method through which the abortions are being conducted, and the number of gestational weeks at which the abortions are occurring.
A companion bill was introduced in the House by Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, R-Iowa. Tuberville’s bill is co-sponsored by eight fellow Republican senators.
