Senator Mel Martinez of Florida, Senator Orrin Hatch of Utah, Senator Norm Coleman of Minnesota and Senator John Warner of Virginia have all signed-on to the Lugar-Sununu letter to the Senate leadership asking for immediate action to get PEPFAR reauthorization to the Senate floor. This letter is critical to our efforts to get PEPFAR going and put saving lives ahead of politics, and we’re excited to have their support. They join Senators Lugar, Sununu, Smith, Dole, Hagel, Corker and Collins.
Want to get involved? If you live in Texas, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Utah, Mississippi, Wyoming, Georgia, Iowa, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Minnesota, Virginia or Missouri, we need you to write to your senator or senators and ask them to sign the Lugar-Sununu letter and get PEPFAR going: http://www.one.org/pepfarletter
If you’re not in one of those states, you can still ask your senators to co-sponsor PEPFAR here: http://www.one.org/pepfarsenate/

Thanks very much for this update, Aaron. I truly appreciate it. Four more Senators signed up to the Lugar-Sununu letter - excellent!
As I mentioned earlier, I will be making some intensive follow-up with my Senators’ offices next week when I have some “down” time from work. Being that they are both from Texas, this is the least that I can do for the re-authorization of PEPFAR and Africa’s Future.
I hope that several more Senators will sign on to this letter before the Memorial Day weekend.
Take very good care, everyONE. Blessings always.
AS ONE, debbie

Aaron,
Please continue your work with all dilligence. I forwarded my letter to my senators and continue to pray for One.org’s efforts.
