"The Center for Family and Human Rights,
known as C-FAM, was founded in 1997 as
an apparent “front” organization for the
scandal-ridden group Human Life
International. However, the group
largely functions as a personal soapbox
for C-FAM President Austin Ruse to spew
hatred and lies. Ruse spreads white
supremacy, anti-LGBTQ hate, and
anti-woman lies on a through C-FAM’s
platform. C-FAM has influence over the
United Nation’s approach to human
rights, which has only grown under the
Trump administration: Ruse advised
Trump’s 2016 campaign, and C-FAM has
been rewarded with direct access to the
State Department. The State Department
named C-FAM an emissary to the United
Nations Commission on the Status of
Women, and has provided the United
States’ UN representatives with talking
points meant to undermine women and
LGBTQ persons’ rights internationally.
More concerningly, C-FAM has pushed the
State Department to ally with autocratic
regimes in an attempt to restrict
women’s and LGBTQ rights at the UN." |

Changing The

"Last
spring,
Laurie
Shestack
Phipps, a
diplomat at
the US
mission to
the UN,
received a
set of
talking
points from
the state
department
before an
international
women’s
conference,
setting out
clear red
lines
against
mention of
“sexual and
reproductive
health”
care. This
had become
the norm in
the Trump
administration,
where the
once
uncontroversial
phrase was
seen as code
for
abortion.
Use of the
word
“gender” was
also
strongly
discouraged,
as it was
viewed as a
stalking
horse for
LGBT rights.
It was no
surprise
that Phipps’
colleague,
Bethany
Kozma, a
political
appointee at
the US
agency for
international
development,
had the same
text. What
was shocking
was that she
heard
exactly the
same words
coming from
the Yemeni
spokesman
for the Arab
Group. Most
striking of
all – the
shared
script was
already
familiar. It
had been
circulated
before the
conference
by an
anti-abortion
lobbying
group called
the Center
for Family
and Human
Rights,
or C-Fam. C-Fam
has emerged
from the
extreme
right fringe
on abortion,
sexual
orientation
and gender
identity to
become a
powerful
player
behind the
scenes at
the UN." |
