There os a letter being passed around by teh global Aids Alliance urging the Senate Budget Committee to provide a level of funding for the overall international affairs account that is large enough to accommodate $5.4 billion to fight AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria, with at least $1.2 billion for the Global Fund.
it's request : a foreign operations budget large enough to accommodate this level of funding, as well as full funding for other critical international development programs, which is critical to a realistic response to AIDS and poverty.
Next Wednesday the House Budget Committee will consider the
budget, and a letter will be sent to House Members
I would urge anyone who is interested in this to send the letter on to Senator Nickles.. If you would like a copy of the letter to sign or to read for reference e-mail me and I can send you a copy kate@interference.com
