State Department report will trim language on women's rights, discrimination
State Department officials have been ordered to pare back passages in a soon-to-be-released annual report on global human rights that traditionally discuss women’s reproductive rights and discrimination, according to five former and current department officials.
The directive calls for stripping passages that describe societal views on family planning, including how much access women have to contraceptives and abortion.
Last year, Tillerson broke with tradition and chose not to personally unveil his department’s human rights report — dismaying activists and lawmakers, including Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, who believe human rights should be a pillar of U.S. foreign policy.
------------------------------------
Reminds me of the head of the NRA. Wayne LaPeirre called Obama "Demographically symbolic", before that, Dana Loesch said we aren't white nationalists but we believe in Anglo Saxon values.
An insult to the country, to Obama and to blacks. Sorry Dana, you are racists.
Sad, the assault on women's rights has barely begun. From people who attack murdered children but are desperate to protect the fetus.
