First Test on Global Poverty
Ruth Messinger reflects on the new adminstration's first test on global poverty in today's Huffington Post. Full post here.
The Judeo-Christian tradition compels us to prioritize the needs of the
poorest and most vulnerable, whether in our own country or
internationally. Not only is this the right thing to do, it is the best
interests of our nation that we reach out to the rest of the world at
this time. President Obama's administration represents a new
opportunity to restore our moral standing in the world. Recognizing and
responding to the increased hardship in developing countries caused by
an economic crisis not of their making will be the first test of the
administration's commitment to addressing global poverty.
