View this email in your browser [link removed] Hungary-EU Asks to Erase “Motherhood” at UN

Dear Colleague,

It is a continuing puzzle to those of us who salute all that Victor Orban is doing domestically in Hungary, that his representatives at the UN refuse to break the EU consensus on such vital issues as motherhood. But, they refuse. Stefano Gennarini, J.D. reports [[link removed]] on the negotiations surrounding the UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) that is eliminating the Beijing paragraphs on mothers and motherhood.

Rebecca Oas, Ph.D. reports [[link removed]] on a statement from a coalition of 500+ pro-life groups aimed at the CSW that convenes next week and the fact that pro-life groups are blocked from putting on panels and other events. It is a travesty of free speech and dialogue. The statement was delivered by C-Fam's own Iulia-Elana Cazan.

Spread the word. Be daring, Keep the faith.

Yours sincerely,

Austin Ruse

President
