Dear Colleague,

If anyone needs proof that the Trump administration is right to contest "sexual and reproductive health" in UN documents, Rebecca Oas, Ph.D. has found more this week. An expert group at the UN Human Rights Council just announced the term includes "safe, legal abortion."

The top UN human rights staffer, former Chilean president Michele Bachelet, is praising, and taking credit for, the imposition of homosexual marriage upon Costa Rica this week. Stefano Gennarini, J.D. reports.

Stay well. Spread the word.

Yours sincerely,

Susan Yoshihara, Ph.D.
