Support
Foreign Assistance!
|
As your constituent and as a Christian, I am writing to ask you to reject cuts to the U.S. foreign assistance budget and to hold funding at current FY2017 levels.
America first, does not need to mean America only. As scripture says in Matthew 25:40, "Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.”
I am concerned that if the President's proposed cuts go through it will put the United States at risk and stop the progress that has been made in areas of maternal and child health, fighting hunger, helping to end disease, getting girls to school, and so much more.
Foreign assistance dollars also fund U.S. jobs, help increase national security, and create economies that can bolster U.S. trade. Please continue the legacy of strong bipartisan support for this small less than 1% of the U.S. budget that is a proven wise investment.
