Moments ago H.E. Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett met with H.E. Annalena Baerbock, President of the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, ahead of today’s Interactive Dialogue with Member States & civil society as part of the selection process for the position of UN Secretary‑General
The measure of success at the UN must be progress achieved, not the proliferation of institutions, hours of meetings, or pages of reports dedicated to a given issue. This is true of the development system, of the human rights pillar, and of the peace and security architecture.

Donald Trump's plan to stop the chemical, physical and emotional mutilation of America's youth.
1. "Revoke Joe Biden's cruel policies on so-called gender-affirming care."
2. "Sign a new executive order instructing every federal agency to cease all programs that promote the concept of s*x and gender transition at any age."
3. "Ask Congress to permanently stop federal taxpayer dollars from being used to promote or pay for these procedures and pass a law prohibiting child s*xual mutilation in all 50 states."
4. "Declare that any hospital or healthcare provider that participates in the chemical or physical mutilation of minor youth will no longer meet federal health and safety standards for Medicaid and Medicare and will be terminated from the program immediately."
5. "Support the creation of a private right of action for victims to sue doctors who have unforgivably performed these procedures on minor children."
6. "The DOJ will investigate big pharma and the big hospital networks to determine whether they have deliberately covered up horrific long-term side effects of s*x transitions in order to get rich at the expense of vulnerable patients."
7. "Investigate whether big pharma or others have illegally marketed hormones and puberty blockers, which are in no way licensed or approved for this use."
8. "Inform states and school districts that if any teacher or school official suggests to a child that they could be trapped in the wrong body, they will be faced with severe consequences."
9. "Promote positive education about the nuclear family, the roles of mothers and fathers, and celebrating rather than erasing the things that make men and women different and unique."
10. "Ask Congress to pass a bill establishing that the only genders recognized by the United States government are male and female, and they are assigned at birth."
11. "Protect the rights of parents from being forced to allow their minor child to assume a gender which is new and an identity without the parent's consent."
