摘要:
On July 8, 2019, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo established a Commission on Unalienable Rights. The Commission will provide the Secretary of State advice and recommendations concerning international human rights matters horizontal ellipsis [and] provide fresh thinking about human rights discourse where such discourse has departed from our nation's founding principles of natural law and natural rights. The Commission has an initial two-year mandate. Democratic lawmakers have raised concerns that the Commission will circumvent existing structures and challenge LGBTQ+ protections and reproductive rights.
