Dear ,
I am writing ask for your support for the following pending bills:
Education for All Act 2007 (S. 1259 / H.R. 2092)
U.S. Commitment to Global Child Survival Act (S. 1418 / H.R. 2266)
Global Resources and Opportunities for Women to Thrive (H.R. 2965)
Jubilee Act for Responsible Lending and Expanded Debt Cancellation (H.R. 2634)
In our world today, 3 billion people, roughly half of Earth’s population, live on less than two U.S. dollars per day. This type of poverty can be ended with extended help from the United States. We as a country cumulatively give the most aid in terms of funding, but are second to last in the proportion of dollars given per person. By passing these four bills, we can take a step towards ending extreme world poverty. The Education for All Act can equip impoverished children with skills that can help them lead productive, peaceful lives. The U.S. Commitment to Global Child Survival Act can prevent millions of preventable deaths worldwide by simply providing immunizations, antibiotics, clean drinking water and vitamin supplements to those unable to afford them. The GROWTH Act can give women in oppressive countries opportunities to better their standards of living and take better care of their children. The Jubilee Act can help poor countries begin to accumulate their own income by canceling debts. All of these bills, if put into action, can greatly reduce poverty around in the world. But they need your support if they are to be legitimized into Acts.
Sincerely,
Blake Cushing
