ongoing review of the global gag rule is necessary to ensure a comprehensive, consultative, action-oriented, and transparent process. to that end, it is critical that the state department monitor the global gag rule\u2019s impact annually to understand the full effects of the policy and how it impacts young people globally. the state department indicated that they will conduct an additional review of the global gag rule implementation by december 15, 2018 but does not commit to any reviews thereafter. the state department also has not yet made stakeholder comments on the implementation policy public, and so it is impossible to determine what is within the written comments.<\/p>\n

this is a sham..<\/p>\n

喀麦隆vs巴西波胆分析 believes even if there was a sufficient timing to properly monitor the impact of the global gag rule that it is a harmful policy, and should be permanently repealed. the expansion of the trump\u2019s global gag rule threatens to exclude some of the most effective health organizations which will harm marginalized peoples\u2019 rights in low-and middle-income countries. the policy will have devastating consequences on the health of all people, particularly young women and lgbtq people. instead of \u201cprotecting life,\u201d the global gag rule will certainly ensure more deaths will occur for people who already lack access to quality, affordable healthcare.<\/p>\n

it is disappointing that the state department is playing politics while young people attempt receivesimply need access to life-saving care, which includes including the right to obtain an abortion services. from the six-month results, it is clear that the trump administration did not take sufficient time to review the effects of the global gag rule, making it a life or death issue for young women, lgbtq people, and other marginalized communities who are in need of care.<\/p>\n

this entire process has been a sham and proves to be yet another example of the trump administration\u2019s relentless actions against the health and well-being of young people, both home and abroad.
