On August 8, 2019, the Better World Campaign joined a broad coalition of civil society organizations in writing to Congressional leaders supporting full UN FY’20 funding, paying back our arrears, and lifting the arbitrary cap on peacekeeping contributions. The organizations also denounced efforts to rescind FY’18 and FY’19 funding already appropriated by Congress for the UN. If the funds are canceled, it would exacerbate the UN’s financial crisis and have a devastating impact on a range of Congressional priorities around security assistance, peacekeeping, and global health.
