Regarding: EDUCATION FOR ALL ACT 2007 (S. 1259 / H.R. 2092)
GLOBAL CHILD SURVIVAL ACT (S. 1418 / H.R. 2266)
JUBILEE ACT FOR RESPONSIBLE LENDING AND EXPANDED DEBT CANCELATION(HR 2634)
Dear Senators,
My name is Tristan Medina and I am writing to you concerned with the amount of foreign aid that the US giving to other countries, according to the 2003 publication of RealAid 80% of all the aid that the US gives is phantom aid, never reaching it's intended recipients. Also, our country is only giving .07% of it's GNP to the Millennium Project instead of the agreed upon .7% od the GNP. This is why I am concerned because if we did give the correct amount to these Millennium Projects the three bill stated above would have never needed to be written, and Congress would not have to waste time debating over them. Two of the Millennium projects are to have all children in school, and to reduce child mortality. So please hear me out and try to bring forth a foreign aid reform and have the US fully support the UN Millennium Project goals, and since we are a world super power other coumtries are most likely to follow suit.
Thank you,
Tristan Medina
