We sued the Department of Defense (DoD) and Veterans Affairs (VA) to demand reproductive justice for our veterans.

At NOW-NYC, we believe that every person who has served our country deserves the right to make choices about when and how they build their family. On August 2, 2023, we took a stand and filed a federal lawsuit challenging discriminatory policies that blocked same-sex couples, unmarried service members, and veterans from accessing essential fertility services like IVF.

This lawsuit has already led to change. The DoD and VA updated policies in early 2024, removing marriage and gamete requirements that once shut out LGBTQIA+ and unmarried veterans. But our work isn’t done. Thousands of veterans are still excluded by outdated policies requiring proof of severe injury or service-connected disability to qualify for fertility coverage.

We’re not stopping until all veterans have equal access to the reproductive healthcare they deserve. Join us in this fight for reproductive justice! 💪🏼💪🏽💪🏾💪🏿
