PEPFAR is the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, which was signed into law 20 years ago this summer by President George W. Bush. It serves as a conduit for providing HIV medications to individuals in impoverished nations who would otherwise lack access to these drugs. However, groundless claims from anti-abortion activists have put the program in jeopardy. Conservative and anti-abortion groups sent a letter to Republicans in Congress who are responsible for PEPFAR’s reauthorization. The letter said that PEPFAR funds are used by nongovernmental organizations that promote abortions and push a radical gender ideology abroad. They provided no evidence to back their claim. Also, the ultra-conservative Heritage Organization released a report that said Congress needs to reassess PEPFAR. The report claimed, that the Biden Administration has misused the program as a well-funded vehicle to promote its domestic radical social agenda overseas, as it has done with other foreign aid programs. This so-called report also did not provide any proof. As a result, Republicans in Congress are threatening not to reauthorize the program. Dr. Anthony Fauci, known for his work at the National Institutes of Health said, “There’s a real danger to associate the program with cultural issues as opposed to scientific ones that clearly show PEPFAR is saving lives."
