And FOCA..........I want to cry.

[rollo tomasi]

FOCA has to be passed by Congress first. Presidents can't create Acts of Congress or Amendments by themselves.

The Mexico City policy that Reagan created (Using existing Acts of Congress through global aid) by EO does regulate federal funding of abortion overseas but not domestically. In order for domestic spending of abortions the Hyde Amendment needs to be wiped out first (Through FOCA).

Contrary to popular belief the President isn't all that powerful without Congressional approval. In fact the President is made to be a impotent creature with the right amount of resistance in Congress or the Supreme Court.
