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

Rep. Rosendale expressed disappointment that his amendment to limit in vitro fertilization (IVF) was not included in the bill. Additionally, an amendment aimed at protecting healthcare providers with religious objections to IVF was also 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.”
