MARCH for Military Servicemembers Act
The MARCH for Military Servicemembers Act (HR 3969) repeals Section 1093 of title 10, United States Code, which currently prohibits the use of Department of Defense funds and facilities for abortion care. This change would directly affect military servicemembers by enabling them to access abortion services through military healthcare systems, removing a longstanding funding barrier. The key provision eliminates the specific restriction, allowing the Department of Defense to provide or fund such care as part of standard military health services. The bill focuses on removing a legal constraint, not mandating specific services or outcomes.
