That is a union mentality and faulty. Did I ever mention that I was a registered lobbyist in New Mexico (as a registered Democrat) and a lobbyist in Texas as a registered Republican. (4 years total) I'm sure you realize that has no influence on how you vote. This is not intended to communicate that I'm smarter.....it is to let you know that most bills are not what they appear on the outside and carry baggage intended to hurt the other party or help your party in future votes.

This bill is not about funding abortions, the military has provided funding for travel to hospitals and clinics that provide services that a given base cannot. Example: I was stationed at 29 Palms, CA, the base has a clinic that families cannot use, we had to travel to Camp Pendleton 2.5 hours. The government paid for my travel, the same is true if we had needed Planned Parenthood service, these clinic are not just about abortions they provide services to women for health care like birth control, STD tests, pelvic exams, cancer screenings, and pregnancy-related services. As you know some states have closed/banned these services. So where do they go for those services if the base doesn't have it and the state doesn't.


My wife worked for the lobbyist representing the IBEW/NECA for 10 years. Both party (Dems/Rep) members are leeches, "can I get tickets to the Kings game, can we use the lobbyist's box seats, can I get a little contribution to push this bill through" and it goes on and on!
