This was accomplished by the overturning Roe Vs. Wade One of the biggest leftwing panics in American History has been this. Overwrought proclamations of women dying in the streets because they can’t remove ectopic pregnancies have become a favorite way to fearmonger. Realism is different. There are not many states that outlaw abortion procedures to save the lives of mothers or terminate a pregnancy.
Still, with Democrat electoral prospects in peril heading into November’s mid-terms, they have to keep pushing the issue. Joe Biden, the President of the United States signed an executive order Wednesday allowing Medicaid funds to be used in support for those who seek out-of state abortions.
Biden signed the order shortly after celebrating the defeat of the Kansas Amendment that allowed stricter abortion restrictions.

CNN claims that Biden falsely claimed support for the move.
“Emergency medical care being denied to women experiencing miscarriages, doctors uncertain about what they can do to provide for their patients, pharmacists unsure whether they can fill prescriptions that they’ve always filled before, a tragic case of rape survivors, including a 10-year-old girl forced to travel to another state for care,” Biden said before signing the order.
A woman who has miscarriaged is not entitled to emergency medical attention in any state. What reason would that be? A miscarriage isn’t even an abortion. Physicians are responsible for any uncertainty that may be caused by their patients. There is no national law that prohibits doctors from giving emergency care to women suffering complications during pregnancy.
I’m also unable to find any legitimate reason a pharmacy would be unable to fill prescriptions they’ve always filled. Biden may be referring to Plan B. Plan B is a contraceptive that has not been affected in any way by the state’s abortion laws. He also lies about his claim regarding the 10-year old girl. The girl may be real but Ohio has no laws that prohibit her from seeking the medical care she needs within Ohio.
This executive order has been built upon a series of falsehoods and mischaracterizations to incite fear among women. In the end, it will cost lives as people won’t seek legal or readily accessible care. Furthermore, and equally important, the actions of Biden are completely unconstitutional.
Wednesday’s order also directs HHS to consider actions guaranteeing women traveling across state lines seeking abortions have access to health care services, including through Medicaid. A bill that guaranteed women access to abortion across state lines was defeated by Republicans in the Senate last month.
According to a senior administration official, that would allow states to provide care for out-of-state patients seeking abortions through a Medicaid 1115 waiver, permitting states to waive certain state-based requirements in providing care and assist in covering “certain costs.”
Although the Hyde Amendment remains in place, no budget that was not included it has yet been adopted, it prohibits Medicaid from funding abortion services. Biden is attempting to an end around by vaguely allowing assistance with “certain costs,” including travel costs. However, taxpayer funds continue to be used for abortion.
Democrats attempt to violate one the greatest common-sense bargains of American modern history. Because abortion can be considered the murder of a baby, the Hyde Amendment prohibits people like me from participating in it. Although the deal was not very deep, it allowed for some separation. How does it work when Americans are forced to cover the costs of abortions? Answer: You cause dangerous divisions to occur in a nation that is already in an unstable spot.
This is playing with fire. It must stop. Hopefully, a lawsuit will bring down this EO. However, if a Republican gains access to the White House, it needs to be repealed immediately. Americans should not be forced to accept the cost of abortions. Period.
