Reinstate and Expand Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance Policy
US Agency for International Development / Global Health Bureau
Reinstate and expand the Mexico City Policy/PLGHA to all foreign assistance, remove exemptions for US-based NGOs and multilateral organizations, block UNFPA funding, and require strict compliance reporting
"The next conservative Administration should issue an executive order that, at a minimum, reinstates PLGHA and summarily blocks funding to UNFPA but also closes loopholes by applying the policy to all foreign assistance, including humanitarian aid, and improving its enforcement." – Project 2025History
