WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Congressman Matt Rosendale (MT-02) released the following statement after voting against the Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act for FY2025.

Rep. Rosendale’s amendment that would have limited In vitro fertilization (IVF) to ensure human life is protected was not included. Moreover, an amendment to protect healthcare providers with religious objections to IVF was not considered.

“Children are the greatest gift life has to offer and my heart goes out to families who are struggling to have them,” said Rep. Rosendale. “However, in a world where alternatives to IVF are plentiful, it is unacceptable that this year’s NDAA made the American people liable financially for the expansion of this life destroying practice. Despite two of my amendments being included, its utter failure to give voices to the voiceless is sickening.”
