The Biden administration plans to investigate, intimidate, and silence opponents of abortion and the homosexual/trans agenda.

The State Department published an “Equity Action” report last week with plans to combat what it dubbed “regressive anti-rights movements.” The open-ended catchall is a technical term of art for pro-life and pro-family organizations. Organizations that have been dubbed anti-rights include Family Watch International, ADF International, the Heritage Foundation, and C-Fam, publisher of the Friday Fax.

Until now the phrase was understood to be little more than a scare tactic. It has been used in reports that track and monitor the activities of pro-life and pro-family organizations prepared by the UN rights office, European governments, abortion and homosexual/trans advocates, and organizations backed by George Soros. The Equity Action report commits the U.S. government to go beyond mere threats.

The Biden plan instructs the State Department to “consult and partner with foreign governments, multilateral and regional organizations, and civil society through events, statements, and institutional mechanisms, like the Istanbul Process 16/18, to combat the rise in global antisemitism, Islamophobia, religiously, racially, and ethnically motivated violent extremism, homophobia and transphobia, and other regressive anti-rights movements.”
