As abortion rights face challenges in the U.S., companies are showing support for employees who seek the procedure.

Amazon will pay up to $4,000 in yearly travel expenses for non-life-threatening medical procedures including abortions, according to Reuters.

The outlet reports that travel expenses will be covered if the operation is not available within 100 miles of the employee's home. Earlier this year, Yelp and Citigroup announced similar policies. The companies said they will cover travel expenses if an employee needs to travel out of the state for an abortion.

The policies come as Republican-controlled states roll back access to abortions. A future ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court could also have a major impact on abortion rights. A draft opinion leaked to Politico on Monday says the Supreme Court will overturn Roe v. Wade and allow states to create their own laws regarding abortion. Draft options are not final and justices could change their mind.

.Amazon is more than happy to help you as an employee to sacrifice your children for their benefit. Your job will not matter after you’re dead. JeffBezos will not care one bit for you. Your children will.

They rather you kill your kids, then you take maternity leave and time off to care for the future of America. LOL good job, Amazon. You found another way to look vile.

why not give them paid maternity leave for 4-5 months and raise their salary when they return?

So much for privacy 🙄 Most women seeking an early termination of pregnancy don't want to ask their employer for travel funds🙄

Well that's one way to encourage rape. No bathroom breaks, but you can kill your babies. Got it.

Travel costs? How much is bus fare to the hood?

Hell yeah they are, it’s cheaper than maternity leave.

What a great move! Amazon sales are in the dumper and now they want to p1ss off half of the country.

New delivery options for Amazon . Every prime order gets the scalp of a aborted baby's.

Just in Amazon will have the robots 🤖 in the warehouses preform abortions.

So will amazon make sure it’s done with in 2 days

Well that’s great because they run us into the ground so hey at least you can kill a baby on their dime 🤷‍♂️

They are really scraping at the walls with this move.

Lots of coffee room sex at Amazon ?

Are you kidding me No one thinks this is taking a life. All the safe ways to prevent. You belive abortion is t he answers.

They need to pull jobs operations & jobs from these states trying to circumvent the will of the people. 70% of Americans support some form of abortion rights. This is a gift for the left and 100 million people that don’t vote might be motivated to turn out in the mid terms

Better yet just tell them to keep their legs closed or their fired

Let's not get too excited about this. The only reason Amazon is doing this is because it is cheaper than an employee's pregnancy and maternity leave.

Hobby Lobby next?

Week yeah, they need employees at work, working. Not at home taking care of a baby. Duh

Amazon, once again, is doing the RIGHT THING,

Amazon making an incredible move to protect women's rights. Bet nobody had that on 2022 bingo.
