I don't like this bill, it's bad for me. Why they do this?

I think this bill is a good idea, it's about time we start supporting UNFPA funding. It's important to help those in need, no matter where they are in the world. I don't understand why some people are against it, don't they see the bigger picture? How can we make a difference if we don't support initiatives like this?
