CRS Action Alert

February 21, 2025
By Tracy Abler, Justice Coordinator

You are aware of the federal funding cuts to foreign aid. Essentially, the stop-work orders have impacted Catholic Relief Services and other agencies like them, who provide emergency aid to millions of people around the world. CRS is unable to give out much of the food, medication, and other resources that people rely on daily to survive. While Secretary of State Rubio issued an exception for lifesaving humanitarian assistance, organizations are currently not able to access money to implement lifesaving programs.  For this reason, CRS has issued an Action Alert, asking US constituents to take action by contacting their legislators.
