Killing USAID is killing people

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) plays a vital role in addressing global challenges and promoting sustainable development worldwide. Blocking its operations would undermine America's national security interests and harm vulnerable populations across the globe who rely on USAID's assistance. As an independent federal agency, USAID's work aligns with American values of compassion and leadership on the world stage. Its programs combat poverty, disease, hunger, and instability, creating a more secure and prosperous world for all. Impeding USAID's crucial mission would be detrimental to upholding human rights, fostering economic growth, and advancing democracy internationally. Therefore, it is imperative to support USAID and allow it to continue its essential work unobstructed.
