Bush Once Again Blocks US Funds to Pro-Abortion UNFPA
WASHINGTON, October 4, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - 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 prohibited 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.
