BY LifeSiteNews.com WASHINGTON, July 12, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A US House of Representatives committee voted Friday to continue its funding embargo of the controversial United Nations Population Fund, the UNFPA. The House Appropriations Committee approved a $19.4 billion foreign aid bill, but denied a Democratic-sponsored initiative to spend $25 million on UNFPA-sponsored “family planning”—a euphemism for population-control, contraception, abortion, voluntary and coerced abortion.  The denial marks the fourth year the Bush-led administration has withheld the funds, arguing that the UNFPA’s support for coerced abortion in China violates US law.  Read the LifeSiteNews.com Special Report:  UNFPA Supports Coercive Family Planning-Including Forced Abortion-in China http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2001/oct/011005c.html Record Number of Nations Donate to UNFPA despite its Support for Coercive Abortion in China   http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2004/jan/04010701.html   tv http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/us-house-maintains-blockade-of-unfpa-funds/
