Stop the UN Global Abortion Tax
Dear LifeNews Readers,
There is a huge problem brewing at the United Nations.
What if the United Nations raised a tax on global goods and services? And what if the United Nations used processed from those global taxes – paid for by you and me – to fund abortions and to push legalizing abortions in pro-life nations where unborn children are protect?
That what if is dangerously close to becoming a reality. And that’s why LifeNews.com is partnering with our friends at CFAM to stop it.
Leading pro-life groups have been following the machinations connected to a global tax on financial transactions for many years. It is an idea that has been discussed and considered around the world and at the UN for a long time and it is among the most dangerous ideas imaginable for the unborn child and the family.
As CFAM has noted: The UN and its agencies raised hundreds of millions of dollars through voluntary contributions from Member States from private sources. Such funds come with strings attached, demands for accountability and transparency. Top UN officials and others would like for the UN to have its own money, its own revenue stream precisely so their budgets will not be beholden to democratic bodies to whom they must be accountable.
Enter the Tobin Tax, a tax on international financial transactions, that would become an independent revenue stream of billions of dollars for the UN.
UN bureaucrats say the revenue of a Tobin Tax would go to humanitarian causes. But already UN officials, including the Secretary General, say that abortion is a humanitarian issue. The head of the UN Human Rights Office recently said abortion must be made legal for medical reasons in the context of the Zika epidemic.

The Planned Parenthood abortion business is supporting the Obama administration’s push today to force a group of Catholic nuns to pay for abortion-causing drugs in their employee health care plans.
Outside the Supreme Court this morning, pro-life advocates are rallying for the Little Sisters of the Poor, who are challenging Obama’s HHS mandate today at the Supreme Court.
The Obama administration has been unrelenting in its fight to force a group of Catholic nuns to violate their beliefs and pay for abortion-causing drugs and contraception, arguing that they are essential health care services.
The son of pro-abortion billionaire George Soros has donated $1 million to the political arm of the Planned Parenthood abortion business. The abortion company has endorsed and is actively working to elect abortion activist Hillary Clinton president and is itself sinking $20 million into a campaign to push her into the White House.
In a few hours thousands of women representing hundreds of organizations, some which profit directly from abortion, will ask and lobby the United Nations to adopt resolutions that will guarantee abortion as a global human right. They’re going to do this by insisting that a right to Sexual Reproduction is what women want to achieve parity with men, as well as their wealthier, and lighter skinned sisters.
The Maryland Coalition for Life has reported that an ambulance responded to a medical emergency at Germantown Reproductive Health Services on the evening of Sunday, March 20, 2016, and transported an “underage” female patient abortion patient to Shady Grove Hospital.
