Of the myriad of corrections the Obama administration must make the one lifting the ban of U.S. funding for international family-planning groups providing abortions or even counseling and information relating to abortions. The so called "global gag rule" has been batted back and forth in to and out of effect since 1984 when the policy was instituted by Ronald Regan. Again those on the ground, the people on the front lines fighting against ignorance, crushing poverty, abuse, those trying to dignify and educate human beings and help lift others to a better life will now be, in some small way, better able to do what people do best.
