HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra ‘exploring’ abortion clinics on federal land
By Andrea Widburg
Despite the high-decibel leftist rhetoric, abortion is not vanishing from America. Dobbs simply returned the question to the states, where it always belonged. Nevertheless, the Biden administration, urged on by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is apparently exploring the possibility of putting abortion clinics on federal property. This is almost certainly illegal but, as our Southern border shows, a little thing like breaking the law isn’t going to stop the Biden administration. There is an amusing irony, though, with the plan, at least if it comes to an ad campaign such as “Visit Yellowstone and get an abortion while you’re there.”
In the short clip, below, of an interview with Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, Chuck Todd raises Ocasio-Cortez’s idea about putting abortion clinics on federal property, although without mentioning that the Hyde Amendment makes it illegal to use federal funds for abortions unless the abortions are to save the mother or in the case of rape or incest. However, you can see that Becerra still says that his Department is considering the idea:
