Tl;dr: The Global Gag Rule withheld U.S. funds from being distributed to any sexual health clinic that gave information on, or performed, abortions. As a result, many clinics that largely served poor and rural areas were forced to close or drastically reduce their services, denying local women access to STI & cancer screenings, birth control, PAP smears, neonatal resources & ultrasounds, and, yes, abortions. Biden rescinding the rule is important for the bodily autonomy and reproductive health & rights of women both in the U.S. and abroad. A motion is being introduced soon in Congress to permanently repeal the Gag Rule.

Yeah, these so called Christians were more than happy to try to buy their way into heaven by letting other people die without healthcare. Oh yeah! They're really pro-life!

they are pro-life until the baby is born.
after that, they are the biggest arseholes on the planet.
not all, but most.

That's what I've always said. They're anti-abortion as an act but they don't really give a fuck what happens to the child. The second it's born they couldn't care less about the baby or the mother if there's the slightest possibility it may cost them money.

Good news.

But the next time a GOP member gets into the WH, it will be back in effect. There are just too many policies that are subject to "which party is in the White House".

most countries know that accepting US aid is a bad idea.
unless it is used to kill adults.
then it is ok.
