Reinstate and widen the Mexico City Policy on abortion
What the document says“the next conservative Administration should issue an executive order that, at a minimum, reinstates PLGHA and summarily blocks funding to UNFPA”
Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance, known as the Mexico City Policy, bars US global health funding to foreign organizations that perform or promote abortion. The chapter asks for it to be reinstated, widened to all foreign assistance including humanitarian aid, extended to subgrantees and subcontractors, with exemptions for US-based NGOs and international organizations removed, compliance reported, and debarment as a penalty. It also asks that the Biden memorandum of 28 January 2021 be rescinded.
What the document actually says“the next conservative Administration should issue an executive order that, at a minimum, reinstates PLGHA and summarily blocks funding to UNFPA”
Sign an order bringing back this rule. Also cut money to one United Nations fund.
A rule stops US aid going to groups abroad that do abortions. Presidents have turned it on and off. The book wants it back. It wants it to cover more kinds of aid.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
