10 Reasons for Congress to Stay True to Defunding UNFPA

Posted on | April 7, 2011 by Tyler Ament |

Here are ten reasons why the United States Congress should maintain their ground on defunding UNFPA. In a time where the US is struggling financially, there’s no need to fund an agency like this until serious reform and accountability become the new norms.

If they can’t give a straight answer on a serious issue, they shouldn’t be spending hard-earned American tax dollars.

UNFPA denies that they promote abortion, yet on Twitter, they promote IPPF Western Hemisphere and other abortion advocate NGOs as “cool youth advocates” in a “Follow Friday” tweet. When asked on Twitter why they did so, they gave no response. Here are the screenshots.
