Help Repeal the Global Gag Rule For Good
Back in the Bush II years (doesn’t it feel good to say it like that?), I remember being appalled when I learned about the Global Gag Rule. The rule stipulates that the U.S. cannot provide any health funding for female health services in any nation that engage in abortion services at all—even if those services are a tiny percentage of the other services (such as family planning, sexual and maternal health, mammograms, and other vital women’s healthcare needs) offered. Imagine how many lives could’ve been saved had this rule not existed.
