19.7: Humanitarian Aid

Expand our commitment to humanitarian aid, especially in Africa.

Other Information:

Seventh, we need to keep and expand our commitment to humanitarian aid, especially in Africa. China and Islam are competing for the hearts and minds of much of Africa, and we cannot turn our back from the investment and commitments we have made. I helped lead many of our efforts to address third-world debt and the global AIDS crisis, and our investments have paid off. As President, I will ensure that all of our foreign aid, bilateral and multinational -- including to the Global Fund -- is consistent with our values and interests and specifically adheres to the Mexico City policy that requires recipients of US federal funds to neither perform nor promote abortion in other nations or they will not receive taxpayer money.
