With that relatively modest expenditure, American aid helps millions of people all across the world facing famine and malnutrition, illness and disease, oppression, disaster, and death.
Trump’s foreign aid freeze is selfish, shortsighted, and inhumane.
We have to fight it with everything we’ve got.
