Cut all aid that the United States sends to Uganda due to President Yoweri Museveni signing the anti-gay bill into law.

Created by I.S. on February 24, 2014

President Yoweri Museveni has just signed the anti-homosexuality bill into law and that is not right. Homosexuality is already illegal in Uganda and that new bill imposes harsh penalties for LGBT individuals who live in that country. I ask the United States Government to cut all aid being sent to Uganda, since the Ugandan Government has turned barbaric against their own people. Why should the United States trust any foreign government that violates the rights of their own citizens? Being gay is not a mental illness. Creating laws that violates the rights of your own citizens is!

The U.S government has before threatened to cut aid to Uganda. I ask the U.S Government to cut all aid to the Republic of Uganda for making the anti-homosexuality bill into law.
