More than 11,000 additional TB patients are estimated to have died after USAID funding freeze. If this continues, thousands more will likely die or lose a loved one, all from one shortsighted action. Read more ↓ #TBFighters #EndTB #Tuberculosis

All Senator Padilla wanted was to do his job and get the questions his constituents had answered β€” instead, he was thrown to the ground and handcuffed.

This is Donald Trump's America, where they attack our freedoms.

We cannot be intimidated or scared by their abuses of power.

Don't cut funding Tell Congress to reverse the Trump Administration's decision to freeze all U.S. foreign aid spending on global health programs, including the delivery of lifesaving medicines to vulnerable patients.

Would you spend $20 to save a human life? What about $20 to save thousands of lives? What if I told you that if you pay US taxes, you already *have* paid this $20, but Trump doesn’t want it to be spent saving lives?

That’s exactly what’s happening with these rescissions: youtu.be/oJW2iES4oPw?...

β€œWe’re hearing that because enough moderate Republicans in the House are telling Speaker Johnson they’re against PEPFAR cuts, the White House is going to amend the package. The pressure is working!!β€œ
