Legislative Priorities

Anne came up to talk about ONE’s legislative priorities.


Overall, ONE advocates for more and better aid, debt cancellation and fairer trade practices.


Anne walked through the budget and appropriations process and the very real impact this legislation can make in the world’s poorest countries.


Throughout the process, YOU can weigh in with legislators. As a ONE member you are helping to build the political will so that the U.S. will commit additional funds to development assistance.


Anne then highlighted a few key pieces of legislations that ONE will focus on this year:


  • The Education For All Act
  • The Child Act
  • The Jubilee Act
  • The Growth Act
  • The Farm Bill
