American Values Act

This bill permanently prohibits U.S. federal funds from being used for abortions or involuntary sterilizations in foreign aid programs and the Peace Corps. It amends the Foreign Assistance Act to ban funding for abortions as family planning, involuntary sterilizations, related biomedical research, abortion lobbying, or organizations supporting coercive programs. The Peace Corps Act is similarly amended to prevent using Peace Corps funds for abortions. These changes apply to all programs funded under these laws, directly affecting U.S. international aid recipients and Peace Corps operations. The policy change makes existing restrictions permanent, removing the need for annual congressional action to maintain them.
