The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is using taxpayer dollars to marketing contraceptives and “family planning” services to the Philippines.
With the assistance of the Philippine government, USAID will launch a marketing campaign that focuses on “increasing modern contraceptive use through demand generation,” and “repackaging or selling the concept of family planning as a lifestyle that contributes to better quality of life.”
Unfortunately, the predominately Catholic nation does not have laws, regulations or policies limiting the selling of contraceptives or abortion services.
Human Life International’s Country director for the Philippines, Dr. Rene Bullecer, said, “The US government, through USAID, finds it now very easy to push their anti-life agenda to the Philippines with minimal pressure for the reason that the current Filipino administration under President Aquino is a known ally of President Obama, and a pro-choice advocate himself.”
