Require Family-Impact Statements for Global Policies

tags: The U.S. Image in the World, Family
President Reagan's EO 12606 required government agencies to file family-impact statements before implementing policies that affect families, and to provide "adequate rationale" for any negative impact those policies might have on families. The next President should issue a similar directive that includes not only policies that affect Americans, but also global polices that affect the international community and which are not directly related to national security interests.

Family is the undergirding of any organized social structure, whether locally or globally. Policies that harm families harm society as a whole, and those that support families are sure to be successful.

"Policies that harm families harm society as a whole, and those that support families are sure to be successful."

Couldn't have said it better myself.
