Urge Bush to release UNFPA funds for low-income women/children

[Diane Monaco]

Action Alert: Urge President Bush to release the $34 million that Congress 
has already appropriated for the United Nations Population Fund 
(UNFPA).  The fund provides family planning services to millions of women 
in developing countries.  And without the US funds, the UNFPA predicts an 
inability to prevent close to a million deaths of low-income women and 
children worldwide.  Millions of lives in developing countries will be at 
risk without the basic health care these funds provide.

Call President Bush at 202-456-1414 (Dial 1 for the comment line) and tell 
him to release the funds!!

Bush is being urged by anti-reproductive rights Congressional members to 
deny the funds on such false claims as the funds are being used for forced 
abortions in China.  Information on the issues (and its obvious political 
nature) from many different sources may be found at the following link:
