This article tells about Donald Trump signing an executive order to defund Planned Parenthood. It also states that the International Planned Parenthood Federation plans on not stopping abortions.

I think the president is a social just issue on his own. the more I read on what he is doing the more I can't believe that he was elected. All your articles that you have found provide great information that I was completely unaware of, this being one of them.

President Trump signed an executive order on Monday halting all federal funds from organizations that promote abortion around the world, including Planned Parenthood. This bill will prohibit some of the poorest women around the world from having a choice in what to do with their bodies.

The Amnesty International suggests that America should treat human rights respectfully in any movements they make in the reputation of countering terrorism or national security. On the downside, America's political authorities are creating an anti-human rights motive when bringing about counter-terrorism, lethal force, surveillance, Guantanamo, and freedom of expression.

No secret that a lot of human rights get violated in the name of National Security. But hard to stop this kind of stuff because it all happens so secretly. By the time we find out its been happening for years.

The IRC (International Rescue Committee) is seriously concerned about females rights in Afghanistan. Females should be able to work, go to school, and move freely. As of August 2021, the response plan funding for women and girls has drastically diminished making them more prone to violence, child labor, and forced marriages. Since international support has slowly been fading away, almost 1 million children will miss out on education.

Despite the article referring to women and young girls distinctly why choose to rename your bookmark and pointedly refer to them as females rather than as the article intends? Your article covers rather dehumanizing issues so it strikes me as odd that out of all this your choice was to choose a word you could apply to any non human mammal rather than the women of Afghanistan. Did you not think that the article used the language "women and girls" for the reason of both humanization and to clarify that perhaps the rights of a female mammal weren't at stake here but the human population that happens to be female?

According to the International Labor Organizations, the United States is one of only two countries that do not guarantee paid leave for new mothers. This is surprising as we live in a country with such great freedoms, yet so many new mothers are forced to choose between earning an income and caring for their new baby. While there are many corporations who are beginning to offer this benefit (as well as paternity leave), the organizations in our country, as a whole, are not making this a priority.

This article is directed towards illegal immigrants having a say in their own labor rights. The fear of getting arrested or deported by their employer contains them from having any say on the unequal treatment. The ILRF(International Labor Rights Forum) is working towards having a protected environment with equal rights in the workplace for them, as well as non-temporary employment.

All immigrants, irrespective of their legal status, have human rights. Draconian security crackdowns have led to a wholesale assault on basic freedoms and rights. Immigrants need representation and assistance on securing human rights.
