	"description": "The U.S. government provides billions of dollars a year in international assistance so low-income folks around the world can access the healthcare they need … unless they want an abortion. The U.S. will help cover doctors visits, vaccines, emergency aid...but reproductive freedom? Oh no, that’s where they draw the line. The law is called the Helms’ Amendment, and it is long past time to repeal it. Can you take action? Fill out the form to send a letter to your Representative pressuring them to support repealing the Helms’ Amendment, and ensuring U.S. foreign aid covers ALL necessary healthcare, not just the procedures colonizers have deemed acceptable. Look, abortion is healthcare. Abortion is healthcare in New York City and abortion is healthcare in Lagos. Abortion is healthcare in the United States and abortion is healthcare around the globe. So today, Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky introduced the Abortion is Healthcare Everywhere Act, a long overdue repeal of the harmful Helms’ Amendment. This policy facilitates U.S. government control over the healthcare and bodily autonomy of Black and Brown people around the world. That’s racist and promotes white supremacy. It is colonialism masked as aid. Rep. Schakowsky is accompanied by 6 co-sponsors who recognize the racism and colonialism embedded in limiting the reproductive health and rights of people living primarily in the Global South. But there are 435 members of the House of Representatives, and they need to hear from the people they represent - they need to hear from you. Tell your representatives to act! Tell them that forcing providers to distinguish between abortion and all other health services is wrong, limits abortion access to the rich, and leaves young people’s lives and futures at the whim of US Congress members interested in limiting reproductive freedom.",
