MARCH for Military Servicemembers Act
The MARCH for Military Servicemembers Act repeals a restriction that previously prohibited the use of Department of Defense (DoD) funds and facilities for abortion care. This change directly allows military healthcare providers to offer abortion services using DoD resources within military treatment facilities. It affects active-duty service members, veterans, and dependents receiving care through the military health system. The policy removes a longstanding barrier to accessing abortion care under the DoD’s healthcare framework.
