Notes
1 The global gag rule, also known as the Mexico City policy, restricts any overseas organisation that receives US global health funding from engaging in any abortion-related activity, be it service provision or referrals, or the giving of advice and information (hence the term ‘global gag’), even where abortion is legal in that country, and where the organisation is using its own funds. First enacted by President Ronald Reagan in 1985, it has been rescinded by the two Democratic presidents to date, only to be reinstated during Republican presidencies. The version of the global gag rule as implemented by Donald Trump is the most restrictive yet.
