One Army veteran running for Congress says the freedoms she fought for in Iraq are being “ripped away” by the Supreme Court’s decision on Friday to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Ashley Ehasz, a West Point grad and former Apache helicopter pilot who is seeking to unseat Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick in Pennsylvania, said the decision is “a matter of national security” because of the impact it will have on the more than two million women serving in uniform.
"Let's be clear: women who are active-duty service members do not get to choose what state they live in, which means they could lose abortion access at the whim of any state with an abortion ban,” the West Point graduate said in a statement. “Now that women in uniform have lost their reproductive rights, our country's fighting force is hindered and our security is at risk."

Hey now I know number of West Point grads and they are by and large wonderful honorable upstanding people.
But if one runs for Congress, it is often required that you sell your soul.
Gosh, that makes way too much sense for anyone in the MSM to ever say such a thing.
Shut your mouth. Close your legs. Problem solved.
Simply moronic.
y’all wanted thems wahmen in uniform.
yas gots what y’all wanted,with all the benefits!
as a military supervisor, i will stand here, today, and say it:
ya bitched and moaned and screamed and laughed about wahmen in the military, and now ya got it in your lap!!
Darlin’ you got the right to keep your knees together, just pretend your flying a helicopter.
When killing children becomes critical for national security, the nation is already on the ash heap of history.
Codifying something by the Congress that is left to the states and the people under the tenth amendment is not constitutional either. If they want to impose a codification of Roe v Wade, they'll have do that through a constitutional amendment. Neither side has the votes to push through a constitutional amendment.
Better yet: mandatory sterilization for all enlisted women.
That would put an end to a lot of nonsense very quickly.
