Fully fund global maternal and child health programs!

The Trump Administration continues its brutal attack on global health, but you have an opportunity to push back, and as my Senator, I want you to. Please sign Sen. Jeanne Shaheen’s Dear Colleague letter to the Chair and Ranking Member of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs. The letter, slated to close on April 29th, asks for increased funding in fiscal year 2027 (FY27) for Maternal and Child Health which includes funding for the Global Vaccine Alliance (GAVI) and for Nutrition. Instead of President Trump’s proposed 91% cut to $85 million for FY26, Congress appropriated the full $915 million for Maternal and Child Health of which $300 million was for GAVI and an additional $165 million for Nutrition for a total of $1.08 billion in funding. Please support fully funding these programs by signing the letter today.
