Right now, the US foreign aid agency needs help. Until it is strengthened and rebuilt, American efforts to relieve global poverty will suffer.
Why? Because America’s development experts just don’t have the tools they need to succeed. And that means wasted time, wasted money, and missed opportunities to help millions overcome poverty and injustice.
We must rebuild America’s foreign aid system to fight poverty more effectively, so that aid workers – not soldiers – are at the front lines of the fight against hunger, disease, and poverty. Tell your senators to co-sponsor the Foreign Assistance Revitalization and Accountability Act of 2009.
