OPINION:
The Biden administration has little to no regard for the law, especially when it comes to promoting the killing of the preborn.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville, Alabama Republican, makes this point in his excellent Washington Times column, “Standing up on abortion to most politicized Pentagon in American history” (web, May 25).
Mr. Tuberville writes: “Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has unilaterally imposed an unlawful abortion policy for our military.” It will force taxpayers “to pay for travel and three added weeks of paid leave for military service members — and their dependents — to get noncovered elective abortions.”
To force Mr. Austin and his Democratic supporters to obey the law and stop spending our taxes illegally, Mr. Tuberville has effectively stopped the Senate from confirming military promotions.
Mr. Tuberville is to be thanked and applauded by all those who believe that just laws should be obeyed, not ignored, by those who want to impose abortion illegally. I hope he will be able to withstand the political pressure and be successful.
