Islamic Relief USA Expresses Concern About Proposed Cuts to International Programs in Federal Budget

 

ALEXANDRIA, Va –  Islamic Relief USA (IRUSA), a nonprofit humanitarian and advocacy organization, issued the following statement regarding proposed cuts to various international programs in the federal budget, focusing on hunger, among other things.

“Islamic Relief USA is very concerned about the impact the proposed cuts to foreign aid will have around the world. As an organization that administers aid in more than 40 countries, we believe these cuts will further imperil many developing nations from providing food and sustenance to their respective populations. With climate change, income inequality, and malnutrition already posing grave threats, we fear that additional cuts proposed by Congress will exacerbate these already pressing problems in areas of the world that can least afford more setbacks.”
