Hi All,
Just wanted to let you know about the upcoming budget confirmations that will be happening this week in the US Senate and House. They will be confirming the budget for 2007. Serious cuts are being considered for global health issues.
There is a very informative site regarding this issue at http://www.globalhealth.org this is great site that provides information about global health concerns. This site also provides information about e-mailing letters to your congressmen as well as writing letters to local news stations and newspapers about global health issues.
I understand that we do not want to get political here, believe me I completely understand this! But, this issue of global health is a recent passion for me and I feel that you can support improved health for fellow humans around the world regardless of your political affiliation or lack there of.
Hope you'll check it out.
Thanks
Christy
