Their campaign includes newspaper ads and the launch of a new website with links to send letters to Congress and sign petitions critical of Bush policies. PLANet complains that increasing population endangers butterfly and bird species. Brueggemann estimates Mexico City policy will cost her organization over 25 percent of their operating budget. IPPF is the world's largest and richest abortion provider in the world and spends millions of dollars every year trying to change various national laws against abortion.
Most countries have restrictions on abortion, something IPPF hopes to overturn.
The new provision states only that an NGO or other international agency cannot promote abortion while receiving US funds.
