Last week, Republican members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee invited Susan Yoshihara, a vice president at the Catholic Family & Human Rights Institute (C-FAM) to testify at a hearing against the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

This was notable because, while the disabilities treaty has support from prominent mainstream Republicans, C-FAM is the kind of group that warns that ratification of the treaty would allow the UN to at any moment swoop in and snatch American kids who wear glasses.

That’s because C-FAM’s primary purpose is to incite right-wing panic over the very existence of the United Nations, primarily its work to improve the lives of women and gay people and to combat sexually transmitted diseases. So, when the UN Population Fund released a report this week “linking adolescent pregnancy to an underlying failure to fulfill young women’s human rights” and discussing ways to fight teen pregnancy throughout the world through measures like combatting child marriage and ensuring access to contraception, C-FAM responded by sending an email to its supporters announcing “They’re coming for your daughters and sons.”

“The sexual radicals have your children, MY CHILDREN, in their crosshairs,” writes C-FAM’s president Austin Ruse. “This new report by one of the most powerful UN agencies in the world tells governments that your children must have UN-style family planning. That means pills, injections, IUDs and the whole panoply of evil devices that will ruin their bodies and take their souls. And if all these evil devices fail? Well, there is abortion, always abortion, everywhere abortion.”

“Why do they want our sons and daughters?” Ruse asks. “Because it is faith-families who are the best line of defense against their global agenda of population control and sexual deviancy.”

Ruse adds that he is happy to have earned the enmity of reproductive rights organizations because “They are the enemy of all that is good and true so we celebrate when they hate us because they hated Christ first.”

We can’t wait for C-FAM to be invited to testify on this before Congress.
