John, it pains me to write this. Despite a judge’s order to restore billions in frozen funds, thousands of programs that support kids and families around the world were just terminated.
This catastrophic decision will create needless suffering – especially for children. I’m struggling to put the devastating impact into words, but these numbers offer a small snapshot: - In one country, over 1.8 million people will be deprived of medical care, nutrition support, safe water and more.
- Another country will
lose 136 health facilities and mobile units, leaving new mothers and babies with nowhere to turn.
- A refugee camp with over
63,000 displaced people will halt essential child protection and mental health services.
John, at-risk communities WILL crumble, and innocent lives WILL be lost. Please, urge Congress to step up and save foreign aid. |
