Dear Colleague,

For years U.S. foreign assistance was abused to promote radical feminism and the homosexual/trans agenda around the world. Crucial aid was misused under the guise of women empowerment, promoting democracy and undermining dictatorships. Secretary Rubio put an end to it last week. Stefano Gennarini, J.D. has the story [[link removed]].

At a recent UN stakeholder meeting that addressed combating human trafficking, several civil society organizations pushed member states to recognize that prostitution and pornography are key drivers of sexual exploitation and trafficking. What a shame that UN agencies, including UN Women remain silent. Iulia-Elena Cazan reports [[link removed]].

Data from C-Fam's human rights database shows how, after years of pressure from UN human rights experts to liberalize their abortion laws, Ireland and Mexico overturned their protections for the unborn, then turned around and started applying pressure to other countries to follow suit. The bullied have become the bullies. Our very own rocket scientist, Rebecca Oas, Ph.D. reports [[link removed]].

Yours sincerely,

Lisa Correnti

Executive Vice President

UN agencies stayed silent on the need to end the demand for prostitution. Read more >> [[link removed]]

When Pro-Life Countries Surrender: Evidence from Human Rights Database

by Rebecca Oas, Ph.D.

WASHINGTON, D.C. July 11 (C-Fam) C-Fam’s new human rights database shows how pressure on pro-life countries does not diminish once they allow abortion. It increases until they allow abortion on demand and become radicalized abortion advocates themselves. Read more >> [[link removed]]
