Trump administration expands restrictions on U.S. funding for international health care providers that perform or promote abortion—an expansion of a policy critics say is having a devastating effect on rural health care in developing countries.

The policy, named for President Ronald Reagan's announcement in Mexico, has been rescinded by successive Democrat presidents and re-implemented by Republicans since its inception. It originally blocked any U.S. funds for global health from going to NGOs that worked in family planning and reproductive health.

Now, the administration is trying to close the gap even further, according to Pompeo, by refusing to provide funds to any group that gives money to other groups that perform or provide information about abortions. A State Department spokesperson later told ABC News the amount rescinded was $210,000 -- a "proportional share of possible OAS costs" for the action at question, according to the statement.

If he wants to keep his Evangelical base, these moves are necessary. However, globally, population control is necessary as well. I am appalled that women are being treated as property in 2019.

tRump simply the biggest mistake in U.S. history.

It always amazes me these people are so quick to do what ever they can to defer abortion rights but they absolutely nothing to help those very same kids live and thrive. Cutting school funding, spec.ed. funding, higher interest rate for student loans, THESE KIDS ARE OUR FUTURE

Trump is abhorrent.

It’s hilarious how this 3x married philandering fraud who had to pay off a porn star is suddenly a Christian conservative. realDonaldTrump is a colossal fraud.

No exoneration!

Thank you President Trump on behalf of the unborn who can’t defend themselves. ❤️

Idiot running wild

Yay, another reply section where people who are fine with violently murdering babies are telling people who aren’t that they don’t care about those children. “Logic”

Abort Trump

And this is making America great We now have small towns with no hospitals Just how great is that

I love how they want everyone to have baubles but once the babies are born they don’t care

Banging sex workers good. Allowing a women to choose what to do with her body bad.

👍👍👍👍

Vote on everything with your entire nation through nation-wide polls.

They just need to take the virginity pledge like the good American Christian girls then use the loophole that is the poop hole.

Dam America is paying for other countries abortions. That’s sick good close that shot down.

MSM needs to stand against this savagery.

You should have been aborted

The number of abortions, however, has remained steady at around 20,000 a year …

WHY is the American people still holding on to their President..? He's destroying their lives slowly...

Well done President Trump. Infanticide is not health care.

Does this includes Israel!

Stupid!!!

Hey Trump Supporters happy now.

What do non critics and the other critics you didn’t ask say?

WalkAway.

Trump has told over 9,014 lies

Bravo, fund your own abortion

Breaking: Trump / Putin collude to control women more.

jfc - we're going to see a rise in unwanted teenage pregnancies. Cue the Christards who will use that as a sign of our 'decaying morality'. NO. It's cause of restricted access to proper healthcare (which includes abortions). This administration is utter trash.

U want a gift dont kill babies -

Trump 2016-2024🇺🇸

Good

President Trump is a man of action... tough, moral, and getting it done for America. No politician in my lifetime has had a spine. Finally we get a real POTUS.

There is no scientific evidence that abortions make women healthier.

I just came here to listen to Democrats who call Trump a 'racist' get mad because the President is stopping children of color from being slaughtered. Carry on.

Whatever as it doesn’t change the fact that he paid and pressured 5 abortions! What a hypocrite!

Trump could care less, this is the freak show right wing GOP.

👏👏👏👏👏

I don't believe you anymore

That's my money! trump2020 maga trump

Ok how does this make their god happy?

Good. Enough murdering babies!

So says a news organization that stated as fact that Trump colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election, ABC NEWS THE BIGGEST JOKE OF THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA

Why did you feel the need to add in a phrase talking about what these so-called “critics” think? Is journalism really this hard for you?

He should have discussed yesterday with his buddy Netanyahu. Israeli government pays for abortions.

Just plain mean

I wonder why we’re paying for foreign healthcare when it’s out of control in our country.

ReleaseTheFullReportNOW The sooner the better! Get this fool out of our white house!

Why are we paying for healthcare in other countries?

PRICK !

Trump blames Fed for sub-4 percent growth; economists blame TrumpPresident Trump says the GDP would have hit 4 percent had the Federal Reserve stopped raising interest rates sooner. Wow Trump claiming something bad wasn't his fault. A rare sight. Fed doesn't come under his magic wand? The President has very little power over the economy, the Fed has only slightly more, and economic growth doesn’t matter to most of us when costs are going up but wages are flat.
