President Trump Needs to Bring a Pro-Life Voice to the Pro-Abortion WHO

In recent years, the World Health Organization (WHO) has become a contentious arena where life issues are debated on a global stage. The organization’s policies and partnerships increasingly reflect the interests of entities that profit from abortion, often to the detriment of vulnerable populations. While there are legitimate concerns about the WHO’s bureaucratic inefficiencies and missteps during global health crises, withdrawing the United States from this influential institution would be a strategic mistake. Now, more than ever, a pro-life American presence is essential to counter the overwhelming support the WHO provides to organizations promoting abortion.

The WHO has become a powerful platform for abortion providers and advocates, endorsing abortion as “essential healthcare” and forming alliances with organizations like the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) and the radicalized Center for Reproductive Rights (CRR). These partnerships enable pro-abortion entities to leverage the WHO’s authority to pressure nations into liberalizing their abortion laws. If the United States withdraws, it leaves a vacuum that pro-abortion advocates will exploit, amplifying their influence unchecked. A U.S. presence ensures that pro-life values have a voice in these critical discussions, challenging the normalization of abortion as a human right.

With initiatives like the “Geneva Consensus Declaration,” the first Trump administration demonstrated its ability to unite pro-life nations to defend life and family values. Remaining engaged in the WHO allows the U.S. to protect countries with strong pro-life laws from being marginalized and ensures that the inherent dignity of every human life is championed at the highest levels of global governance.

As the largest financial contributor to the WHO, the United States wields considerable influence over the organization’s priorities. By remaining within the WHO, the U.S. can demand accountability and ensure that funds are allocated to genuine healthcare initiatives rather than abortion advocacy. Withdrawing forfeits this leverage, allowing pro-abortion entities to dominate the conversation unchallenged.

Pro-abortion organizations frequently use the WHO to pressure sovereign nations with pro-life laws into liberalizing their abortion policies. Countries like El Salvador, Poland, and many others with strong protections for unborn children face consistent challenges on the global stage. A strong U.S. presence in the WHO can counteract these efforts, reinforcing the principle that each nation has the right to uphold its cultural and legal commitments to life and family. Without American leadership, pro-life countries may find themselves isolated and vulnerable to continued external coercion.

Withdrawing from the WHO would not solve its shortcomings; instead, it would eliminate one of the most potent pro-life voices at the global level. The Trump administration has shown a commitment to protecting life both at home and abroad, and this commitment must extend to international forums like the WHO. The stakes are too high to abandon this critical platform.

This is not a moment to retreat—it is a moment to lead.
