Another appeal for further U.S. Aid
From a post by Seth Green at Tsunami Help:
The non-partisan Americans for Informed Democracy (www.aidemocracy.org) has launched a letter signing effort that seeks to ensure a principled U.S. response to the tsunami disaster: see www.principledleadership.org . Often, U.S. policymakers believe that taxpayers feel burdened by U.S. development and disaster aid. As American citizens who deeply care about the victims of the tsunami disaster, Americans for Informed Democracy wants to ensure that policymakers know that American taxpayers stand behind South and Southeast Asia. The group is encouraging all U.S. citizens to visit www.principledleadership.org, sign on to the letter, and share the site with their colleagues.
(For more on this effort, see a piece in the Nation magazine at http://www.thenation.com/blogs/actnow?bid=4&pid=2092)
