Enactment #:
Title:
Resolution supporting the She Decides Global Initiative spearheaded by the Netherlands which aims
to support women’s fundamental rights around the world to decide if, when, and how many children
they have, by filling any gaps in funding resulting from the U.S. President’s reinstatement of the
Mexico City Policy (also referred to as the “Gag Rule”), which bans financial support to foreign
organizations that provide access to safe abortion or any information about abortion, even if they do
so with non-U.S. funding.
