Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would set conditions on organizations that receive U.S. grants or cooperative agreements for nonmilitary foreign aid, such as global health, humanitarian, development, and democracy programs. Foreign groups and international organizations would have to agree not to provide or promote abortion, promote gender ideology, or promote discriminatory equity ideology as the bill defines those terms, and not to fund other groups that do. U.S. groups would face narrower limits, including not providing abortion abroad and keeping aid-funded work physically and financially separate from these activities. The abortion limits would not apply when a woman's life is in danger or for ectopic pregnancy, and the Secretary of State could waive the rules under certain conditions after notifying Congress.
