VA Policy Change Affects Male Veterans with Breast Cancer
A memo from the Department of Veterans Affairs, obtained by ProPublica, creates new obstacles for male veterans with breast cancer to receive coverage.
The agency's decision is based on an executive order by President Donald Trump, titled "Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government," issued on his first day in office.

The policy change does not cite any new scientific evidence, according to the memo. A spokesperson for the agency confirmed the change.
The Trump administration's move makes it harder for male veterans with this rare but deadly cancer to get their healthcare needs covered by the government.
