What can Americans do?Call on Congress to provide the full promised $15 billion over five years (beginning in government financial year 2004) to stop global AIDS. Of this, a slight majority of the funding should go to new and existing bilateral AIDS programs, including funding for orphans and vulnerable children. A significant portion should also go to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB, and Malaria. Do your part by writing letters to President Bush and/or your Senators and Representatives.
The President’s address: To find out who your local senators and representatives are, how to contact them, and how they stand on the AIDS issue, go to www.senate.gov and www.house.gov or call the Congressional switchboard at 202-224-312. |
