A top contributor of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) recently announced to cut 85- of its aid funding pledged to UNFPA. The announcement came from the US’s National Republican Trust, a political and charitable trust that supports conservative causes worldwide. Their executive director, Jim Simons, said "The Trump administration believes in empowering women and girls by expanding their opportunities not just through access to health care but also through education."
