Lee Sounds Alarm on Pro-Abortion United Nations Nominee

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) today urged that the United States veto the nomination of pro-abortion radical Dr. Michelle Bachelet to the position of United Nations Secretary General (UNSG). In a bicameral letter with support from a large congressional coalition, Lee and his colleagues outline Bachelet’s extreme promotion for abortion as a “human right” and history of overriding state sovereignty with intimidation and coercion to push this radical agenda.
