A group of Justice Department (DOJ) employees is calling on the Biden administration to require federal agencies to give time off to workers if they or members of their family need to travel out of state to obtain abortion services.
The request from the DOJ Gender Equality Network to White House officials and the head of the Office of Personnel Management comes as a growing number of companies are providing travel benefits for employees who live in states where abortion access will be restricted if the Supreme Court overturns its landmark decision in Roe v. Wade, which established the right to an abortion. The group wants the federal government, as the nation's largest employer, to follow suit, arguing it is a "tangible and meaningful form of assistance" it can offer.

For those that are saying let's hold a public vote, just remember only 30% are against abortion.

Lets hold a public vote on that. I want a say in whether or not my tax dollars can be spent on this barbaric practice of murder and discrimination against black America. planned parenthood was founded by a racist in a concerted effort to try to control and reduce the non white population of America. Even they recognize this as they have taken her name off of the facilities that once carried it. Make no mistake, abortion stops a beating heart. That is murder. PO1 William "Chip" Nagel

Asking the Federal Government to be Complicit in the killing of your child or children if they are twins. I can't believe it. I guess getting into heaven is going to be that much easier for those of us who don't support this barbaric request.
