The Republican War On Women Has Reached The Military

A Republican staffer in the House told the Army Times that House Republicans plan to restrict military women's access to abortion in cases of rape and incest. With bipartisan support, a Senate Committee approved the amendment giving military women the same access to abortion in cases of rape and incest as ordinary citizens. But House Republicans say they have social objections to the amendment and will likely strip it out of the National Defense Authorization bill. That means the 200,000 women serving in our nation's military won't have the same rights to reproductive health services as all the other women in American who are not serving in the military.

So this is the Democrat strategy " War on women" LOL remember when Obama called Hillary a racist and bullied the Arizona governor? Women need jobs too! They have been hurt by Obama economic failure more than any other group.

To the person who posted this--what about the Democrat War on the unborn Women and Men AKA abortion? It is sickeningly hypocritical to say there is a "Republican War on Women" and patently untrue. Republicans are the only party trying to bring awareness to the increasing and insidious adoption of Sharia Law in this country, Sharia is undoubtedly the most violent and anti-woman ideology in history. Democrats won't even talk about it. So which party TRULY does not advocate for women?
