Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization<\/em> decision returning abortion regulations back to the states, the Biden administration has worked overtime to open every back door to advance its pro-abortion agenda, including in states with recently passed abortion restrictions or even bans. To accomplish this, it has turned to federal agencies such as the Department of Veterans Affairs to terminate the lives of unborn children. These efforts have quickly turned into a legal disaster.<\/p>\n<p>Just last week, news broke that Stephanie Carter, an Army veteran and nurse practitioner at a Veterans Affairs (VA) hospital in Texas, is suing the Department of Veterans Affairs for forcing her to handle and distribute abortion pills \u2014 one of the latest mandates enacted by the Biden administration to circumvent the <em>Dobbs <\/em>decision. The \u201cReproductive Health Services\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/firstliberty.org\/news\/challenging-va-abortion-rule\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rule<\/a> enacted in September \u201cimmediately allowed elective abortions at VA medical clinics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This rule does not currently allow for religious exemptions for workers like Carter, who have religious objections that conflict with this life-ending procedure. When Carter attempted to opt out of the handling and distribution of abortion pills at the Olin E. Teague Veterans\u2019 Center, her supervisor refused, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/news\/va-nurse-abortions-force-participate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">report<\/a> from Live Action. This egregious violation of religious freedom has resulted in First Liberty Institute filing a lawsuit on Carter\u2019s behalf.<\/p>\n<p>To make matters worse, because this VA hospital is under both federal and state jurisdiction, Carter could be held liable for providing this abortion access, as it potentially conflicts with the various abortion restrictions in Texas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe rule that\u2019s at issue in this case,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/1stLiberty\/status\/1603148293072207879?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ct%20wcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1603148293072207879%7Ctwgr%5E09456b8%2057335bf4411c732cc68196871687f2b7d%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&#038;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2F%20www.liveaction.org%2Fnews%2Fva-nurse-abortions-force-participate%2F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">according<\/a> to Danielle Runyan, an attorney of First Liberty Institute, \u201callows for abortions to be provided \u2026 to protect the life or health of the mother. \u2018Health\u2019 [can be] a wide variety of things that can potentially be in conflict with the laws of the state of Texas. So not only are Ms. Carter\u2019s religious liberties being violated, but she could also be held criminally and civilly liable here in Texas if she complies with the rule.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> The Larger Biden Abortion Agenda <\/p>\n<p>This gross violation of religious liberties is just one instance in the Biden administration\u2019s recent efforts to bring abortions to states with pro-life laws. Just two weeks after the quite literally life-altering <em>Dobbs <\/em>decision, President Joe Biden signed the executive order \u201cProtecting Access to Reproductive Health Care Services\u201d in an attempt to access any loopholes.<\/p>\n<p>The Federalist staff writer Jordan Boyd <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/07\/08\/bidens-abortion-order-undermines-scotus-and-democracy-by-seizing-power-from-voters-and-giving-it-to-feds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">explained<\/a> this order will effectively \u201cfunnel federal time, resources, and funds, mostly through the Department of Health and Human Services, to shield existing abortion facilities, promote unlimited abortion, and circumvent Republican state laws to help send women to abortion appointments in other states.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the order\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2022\/07\/08\/fact-sheet-president-biden-to-sign-executive-order-protecting-access-to-reproductive-health-care-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pledge<\/a> to \u201cprotect access to medication abortion\u201d is a misleading euphemism for a chemical abortion that starves, kills, and expels the dead child from a mother\u2019s womb. This is clearly the antithesis of \u201cmedication\u201d and has also sparked <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/11\/23\/lawsuit-could-force-the-fda-to-rescind-approval-of-abortion-pills-that-endanger-mom-and-baby-alike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lawsuits<\/a> against the Food and Drug Administration<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Dobbs v.
