Ileana Ros-Lehtine, Republican Chair woman at U.S. Congress says: NO MORE CASH FOR UNITED NATIONS

State and Foreign Operations cuts at odds with voters wishes

By Peter Yeo, vice president of public policy, United Nations Foundation –

 

... At a time when Americans want our dollar to go farther, this bill unnecessarily targets UN agencies — the very vehicles we need to make that happen.  Failure to pay our dues to the UN will erode America’s ability to further its national security interests. It contradicts what voters want, and we must speak out.

 

Yeo is vice president of public policy at the United Nations Foundation and executive director of the Better World Campaign. Previously he served as deputy staff director at the House Foreign Affairs Committee chaired by Rep. Tom Lantos (D-Calif.) and Rep. Howard Berman (D-Calif.) and as Deputy Assistant Secretary at the U.S. State Department during the Clinton Administration.
