Mr. Biden also issued a presidential memorandum unwinding the Mexico City Policy, known as the global gag rule, which prohibits U.S. dollars from flowing to international non-governmental organizations that provide abortions, advocate to legalize and expand abortion access, or provide abortion counseling.
The rule dates back to 1984, under President Ronald Reagan, but has been revoked and reinstated by Democratic and Republican administrations, respectively. Former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama rescinded the policy, while Mr. Trump re-enacted and expanded it.

I'm pretty sure the Catholic Church is totally against abortion. If the church had any balls they woulda excommunicated him and Pelosi long ago. So, is he a catholic? I think he's a CINO, you figure it out.
There was no basis for this policy in the first place. It does not serve any national interest. Biden and Pelosi would be abusing their powers of office if they imposed the views of the group that runs the Catholic Church on the entire country.
Politicians who impose the religious views of a particular sect they belong to on the entire country when they are in office, and those people who expect a politician to do so, set up a scenario in which voters have to choose or reject a candidate based on the candidate's religion alone. For example, if a voter doesn't like something on the Presbyterian Church's agenda, she would have to cross off a Presbyterian candidate without any further evaluation. I don't think that this is a good idea. We would just be voting religion against religion.
