The Trump administration on Monday announced that it will strip the United Nations Populations Fund (UNFPA), which works on reproductive health, family planning, HIV/AIDS, and infant and maternal mortality in more than 150 countries, of all US funding.

The administration claims the organization is in violation of the 1985 Kemp-Kasten Amendment, which forbids US funding of organizations that support or participate in forced sterilizations and abortions.

The UNFPA has vigorously denied the charge.
