WASHINGTON – The USGLC President and CEO Liz Schrayer released the following statement on the House Fiscal Year 2025 State-Foreign Operations Interim 302(b) Allocation:
As we watch China literally rolling out the red carpet for Putin today, not to mention spiraling global humanitarian crises, now more than ever is the time for America to double down on investing in the critical tools of diplomacy and development to ensure we can compete on the global stage and advance our values.
We look forward to continuing our bipartisan, bicameral engagement with Congress to underscore why investing in our international affairs tools directly protects America’s security and economic interests.
