VA Staff Can Deny Care Over Politics, Marital StatusNew VA policies permit discrimination by 26,000 doctors, impacting care for 9 million veterans annually.
- An executive order from President Trump now allows VA medical staff to refuse treatment based on patients’ political beliefs or marital status.
