ONE in America
@ONEinAmerica
ONE fights for a more just world by demanding the investments needed to create economic opportunities and healthier lives in Africa.
You might have heard that “no one has died” as a result of disruptions to life-saving foreign assistance funding. This narrative is demonstrably false and incredibly dangerous. one.org/stories/cost-o…
"Global health is also an effective national-security policy. It promotes peace and stability in potentially dangerous regions, protects us from pandemic disease, and generates economic growth that benefits the whole world, including us." wsj.com/opinion/u-s-ai…
"Catastrophe—that’s the feeling going on here in Africa. People are still hoping they’ll wake up and the orders will be reversed." wired.com/story/usaid-ru…
"These aren't just numbers; they're people losing access to the most effective public health intervention of our time." medpagetoday.com/spotlight/hiv/…
Thanks @RepLoisFrankel for highlighting Africa's potential - and thanks to @MarioDB and the entire House Appropriations Committee for their support!
Right now, the House and the Senate are putting out their blueprints for the federal budget. Make sure they prioritize effective and accountable foreign assistance programs: go.one.org/4f4xUi4
Afghanistan’s humanitarian crisis deepens as funding cuts leave 3M+ without essential medical care. In Nangarhar, a pediatrician says infant mortality is up 3–4% since the cuts. @IsobelYeung and @mickbk explain 👇cnn.it/4flVLdD
"The delays and waste are further examples of how the freeze and then cutbacks, which led to the firing of thousands of USAID employees and contractors, have thrown global humanitarian operations into chaos." reuters.com/world/us/us-ai…
Cuts to lifesaving global health programs go against America's best interests - and the will of the American people. We asked, you answered: By a broad and bipartisan basis, Americans support US investments in international health. Learn more: go.one.org/3TJKoCg
We welcome the Senate's decision to remove @PEPFAR funding from the rescissions package but are concerned by the lack of accountability for other cuts to effective, results-driven US assistance. Our statement: one.org/us/press/one-s…

Investing in global health means investing in a safer, more equal world for everyone. After polling 7,000+ people across the US, @ONEinAmerica found broad support for continued investment in lifesaving global health programs. Across ages, regions, and perspectives, one message…
The numbers don’t lie - @PEPFAR saves lives. Thank you, @RepMarkAlford, for your support of this critically important program!
As the Senate considers clawing back funds for foreign assistance, our new poll shows broad and bipartisan support among Americans for US investments in global health. Tell your lawmakers to vote against reckless and rushed cuts: go.one.org/3Izu0Sc one.org/us/what-we-do/…
The Trump administration has promised to distribute food aid before it spoils. But 500 tons of emergency food in a U.S. warehouse are about to expire and are slated for the incinerator, @hanamkiros reports. theatlantic.com/health/archive…
Cuts to foreign assistance have real impacts on real people. Thanks for calling attention to these dangerous consequences, @rosadelauro.
"All of the HIV medicine for children that we have at our clinic is expiring in a few weeks. We have been waiting for months for a resupply, and it’s not just us. It’s every clinic in the country."
An HIV doctor in Africa, whose work depends on USAID and PEPFAR, sends in a dispatch of the bleak situation now unfolding there thebulwark.com/p/a-religious-…
"In Mozambique, the cuts disproportionately affected children, with a 44 percent reduction in testing in February 2025 compared with a year earlier." politico.com/newsletters/fu…
Advocacy runs in the family! ONE activists Cheryl and Mark took their granddaughters along to drop off letters from constituents encouraging @SenWarren and @SenMarkey to keep supporting effective and accountable US foreign assistance!
"The first generation without AIDS is not a dream. It is a choice. But it’s a choice that requires urgency, clarity and courage — not next year, but now." - @PeterASands forbes.com/sites/petersan…
Fighting deadly infectious diseases is in all our interests because diseases know no borders. An outbreak can quickly become a global crisis if it spreads undetected. Visit the new Global Health Security website to learn more: impact.theglobalfund.org/en/global-heal…
The DRC is facing a surge in HIV infections after US aid cuts hit anti-HIV programs, which could worsen if Congress rescinds more PEPFAR funds. @CARE has had to turn away sexual assault victims as they've run out of essential medicines. More from @WSJ ⤵️ wsj.com/world/africa/u…
