Talk about pissing away 18 million dollars...to kill unborn children, yet.
Life News noted that the Obama administration used $18 million in taxpayer funds to advocate for less restrictive abortion laws in Kenya. According to the GAO, at least one Obama grantee openly violated the Siljander Amendment, an annually renewed law that prohibits tax dollars from being used to lobby for or against abortion in other countries, Life News added.
A key Obama official stonewalled investigators and refused to cooperate in the investigation. Rep. Chris Smith, a New Jersey Republican who opposes abortion, accused the administration of using surrogates to promote abortion in Africa, despite the law.
“The Obama Administration basically hired surrogates to do its dirty work of abortion promotion in Kenya,” he said. “U.S. policy on international constitutional reform is, by law, supposed to be abortion-neutral,” he added. “This new report shows that at a minimum the Obama Administration ignored the prohibition with the end result being a new Kenyan constitution that vastly expands access to abortion in Kenya, courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer.”
