Letter to Transition Team About Recommendations Related to Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights

December 16, 2020

To Ms. Figures, Ms. Wallace, and Ms. Smith:

“The undersigned organizations write to respectfully urge the Biden-Harris Administration immediately upon taking office to accept the recommendations related to sexual and reproductive health and rights received during the United States’ 3rd Universal Periodic Review (UPR).

Reproductive autonomy lies at the heart of the promise of human dignity, self-determination, and equality embodied in the U.S. Constitution, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the core human rights treaties. The upcoming adoption of the UPR report at the UN Human Rights Council in March offers an important opportunity for the incoming Biden-Harris Administration to re-engage the United States on human rights and commit itself to protecting and ensuring sexual and reproductive health and rights, both at home and abroad."
