Years ago, during the George W. Bush administration, I shadowed another U.S.A.I.D. Despite some notable gains, especially in areas such as girls’ education, it was clear the agency was struggling. In the end, approximately $145 billion in assistance — about $20 billion of which was administered by U.S.A.I.D. Would the story turn out similarly in Ukraine, a state that last year ranked alongside Angola in Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index?

When Congress passed the Helms Amendment, only six of those countries allowed abortion in circumstances beyond saving a woman’s life. And every year, more than 16,000 of the women and girls who have received these unsafe abortions die from more serious complications. President Biden also has the power to mitigate some of the harms of the Helms Amendment. His administration could also ensure that clinics in countries where abortion is legal understand that U.S. rules allow them to offer abortion information and counseling.
