Bush Once Again Blocks US Funds to Pro-Abortion UNFPA
(LifeSiteNews.com) WASHINGTON, For the fourth consecutive year of his presidency, U.S. President George W. Bush has refused the United Nations Population Fund, UNFPA, its designated annual US government contribution. The $25 million normally earmarked for the organization was diverted by the president into a State Department initiative against human trafficking and prostitution.
The UNFPA support for coerced abortion contravenes a U.S. law that prohibeted any funding of abortion supporting organizations. The UNFPA has been actively supporting, through funding and training, China's one-child policy, which involves forced abortion.
