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. 💪🌍



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 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…





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.



Thank you Sen. Lisa Murkowski for your leadership and remarks. Hope other Senate Republicans take notice. 👇
