President Donald Trump will expand an executive order he signed in January to defund Planned Parenthood’s international arm and Marie Stopes International. The Mexico City Policy prohibits nongovernmental international groups that commit or actively promote abortions overseas from receiving family planning funding; however, it does not halt humanitarian aid or health care services.

A White House official told CBN News that the Trump administration plans to announce the “Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance” policy Monday, which appropriates $8.8 billion through federal agencies and departments. The funding would go towards organizations that comply with the Mexico City Policy.

“The pro-life policy will apply to global health assistance funding for international health programs, such as those for HIV/AIDS, maternal and child health, malaria, global health security, and family planning and reproductive health,” a White House official told “The Brody File.”

The move would be an even stronger pro-life step than President George W. Bush, who reinstated the Mexico City Policy in 2011. His successor, Barack Obama, rescinded it during his first week in the White House.

The Mexico City Policy was implemented by President Ronald Reagan in 1984.
