Comment to the Department of Veterans Affairs on Interim Final Rule on Reproductive Health Services
The Center for Reproductive Rights submitted this comment on October 11, 2022, to the Department of Veterans Affairs in strong support of the Interim Final Rule (VA IFR) on Reproductive Health Services. The VA IFR lifts the ban on abortion counseling and the ban on abortion in the cases of rape, incest and to protect the life and health of the pregnant person. Before the VA IFR, veterans had no access to abortion through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The Center for Reproductive Rights encourages the VA to take further steps to ensure that all veterans have access to abortion services.
