How US Abortion Politics Jeopardize A Global AIDS Relief Program
About 20 years ago, Congress pretty much agreed on one thing: PEPFAR.
President George W. Bush introduced the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief in his 2003 State of the Union address. Since then, it's been renewed with little fuss every five years.
But abortion politics are changing that, Politicians are reacting to allegations that PEPFAR funds are being used to "promote abortion on demand." Congress needs to decide if it will renew the program by the end of September.
We discuss PEPFAR and how the politics around the program became so fraught.
