Today, we announced a $1.6 billion pledge to support @Gavi. If Gavi isn’t fully funded, too many children could be left without the vaccines they need. Now more than ever, we must stand together to support immunization #ForOurFuture. gates.ly/44wMDyE

It would really be amazing if this Administration stopped making ridiculously short-sighted and ill-informed decisions. The zero-dose work of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance is addressing major epicenters of disease outbreaks that is saving lives here at home and abroad.

U.S. support for Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance isn't just the right thing to do—it's smart policy. Every $1 invested returns $54 in economic benefits. Gavi has helped vaccinate 888M+ kids, preventing 15M+ deaths. Healthy kids = stable communities = global security. Win-win for America. 💪🌍

"I feel like I'm just waiting to die." Real people have died as a result of cuts to lifesaving foreign assistance programs have cost lives. Read their stories: one.org/stories/cost-o…

In both DC and my trips to the field, I've gotten to know incredible professionals dedicated to making the world a better place. Thank you all who been a part of the vital mission and legacy of USAID. interaction.org/statement/inte…

According to Russ Vought this is “malicious compliance” by NGOs. Truth is it’s flat out US abandonment that is killing kids. We should all be ashamed. “In Sudan, where children clung to life, doctors say USAID cuts have been fatal” wapo.st/446wsbo

The US Agency for International Development (#USAID) funding has had a crucial role in improving global health. A new study estimates that USAID programs have saved nearly 92 million lives over past 20 years. Explore the research ▶️ hubs.li/Q03vpQcn0

The DRC is facing a surge in HIV infections after US aid cuts hit anti-HIV programs, which could worsen if Congress rescinds more PEPFAR funds. CARE (care.org) has had to turn away sexual assault victims as they've run out of essential medicines. More from The Wall Street Journal ⤵️ wsj.com/world/africa/u…

I can't comprehend how anyone can believe that the cuts to USAID aren't costing lives. What more evidence does there need to be? vimeo.com/1084417647?ref…

Global health progress is in jeopardy. U.S. funding cuts are threatening work that has saved millions of lives and advanced a healthier world for mothers, babies, and children.

Utter incompetence, stupidity, or both "..the Trump administration has given the order to incinerate food instead of sending it to people abroad who need it. Nearly 500 metric tons of emergency food—enough to feed about 1.5 million children for a week—are set to expire tomorrow"

Pt. 2 #EdgarInEthiopia — “Thank the American people.” That’s what a local leader told Edgar Sandoval Sr. ... He grew emotional at the thought that food distributions might end, saying "when the food leaves, death could take its place.” The Church is being called to feed the hungry.

Once again, the cruelty is the point. This nothing to do with budget deficits or cutting waste - the Trump administration could have turned the food over to a global relief agency at no cost to the budget. Instead, they are spending tax dollars to incinerate the food.

I believe the package of spending cuts my Republican colleagues are about to make us vote on – cuts to disaster relief, to food for starving children, to health around the world – these cuts would make Jesus weep.

Interesting that the official line is that wasting $800,000 of food that could feed 1.5 million children is no biggie when they’ve excoriated other examples of “waste” that cost a lot less.
