Below is an e-mail I received from Marjorie Dannenfelser, the President of the Susan B. Anthony List:
Sadly, what I have been warning you about has come to pass.
Today, in a quiet, low-key ceremony, President Obama, has overturned the pro-life Mexico City Policy.
The Mexico City Policy, which President Bush enacted on his first day in office, was originally established by President Reagan to keep your money from overseas abortion providers.
President Obama campaigned on finding ‘common ground’ on abortion policy, but his first presidential decision to roll back the commonsense Mexico City Policy signals to American taxpayers that the abortion bailout has begun.
It’s unfortunate that President Obama has made subsidizing international abortion groups one of his first priorities, even as abortion numbers here at home are on the decline. America should respond to women’s needs in developing countries with real assistance that also upholds their dignity, not by promoting or paying for abortions.
I am disappointed by President Obama’s decision to bypass the will of American taxpayers and promote the radical agenda of Planned Parenthood and the abortion lobby.
President Obama tried to pull a fast one on the country by holding a quiet ceremony on a Friday evening when the mainstream media wasn’t paying attention. President Obama must know how unpopular the funding of international abortions is, if he is trying so hard to hide it.
Welcome to “change” but don’t expect any “hope” for the unborn child.
Remember, this is the same man who voted AGAINST treating babies who survived an abortion. Barbara Boxer, the pitbull of the Senate, is not nearly as ruthless and frigid as our new Socialist-in-Chief.
