"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." |

Revealed: The Fringe
Rightwing Group
Changing The UN
Agenda On Abortion
Rights |
|
"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." |
