Pentagon to provide funds, help for troops seeking abortions.
The new policy sets guidelines so that local commanders aren’t allowed to influence whether service members get access to care or create a culture where service members or their dependents do not come forward out of fear they could face repercussions.
The new guidelines also direct each military base to publicly display what reproductive heath care support is available for service members and their dependents, extend the time in which a service member must report a pregnancy to commanders to 20 weeks and provide additional protections for defense health care providers who furnish abortion services.
