The U.S. Department of State transmitted its annual human rights report to Congress this week, after an overhaul of its content from previous years. The report was released later due to changes within the State Department’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor.
A department spokesperson said, “The Human Rights Report only makes the United States — and the world — safer, stronger, and more prosperous if individual reports are useful, factual, and unclouded by political biases and cherry-picking. This year’s revised individual reports are a welcome step in that direction.”
The spokesperson continued, “The Trump Administration, both President Trump and Secretary Rubio, have been leading efforts on the most important human right, which is the right to life, including leading on ceasefire signings and treaties, and multiple other avenues, demonstrating the administration’s commitment to human rights.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For President Trump and members of his administration as they give added weight to freedoms of speech and other liberties and reduce the focus on gender identity and sexual preference.
- For Secretary Marco Rubio to receive God’s wisdom as he heads the State Department.
- For members of Congress as they consider foreign policy measures in light of the human rights report.
