ONE Statement on Ukraine Supplemental Request
WASHINGTON– The ONE Campaign released the following statement in response to the announcement of a $33 billion supplemental request for aid to Ukraine. In the request, President Biden reaffirmed the critical need for Congress to approve the Administration’s March 2022 request for $22.5 billion in Covid funding, which includes $5 billion for the global response.
Tom Hart, President of The ONE Campaign:
“We appreciate President Biden reiterating the Administration’s request for $5 billion in global Covid support. This funding is essential. We know these viruses can come from anywhere. There is no viable domestic Covid strategy without a global response.”
