Did you know U.S. companies earned $2.13B in @UN contracts in 2024? That's more than any other country and more than our annual UN dues. These contracts create jobs, drive growth, and bring revenue back to communities. Explore our new interactive map: betterworldcampaign.org/unforus

What does the U.S. actually get from the @UN? 🛡️ Burden sharing in peacekeeping 🦠 Disease surveillance 🤝 Humanitarian relief All for roughly the same cost as the annual budget of Rhode Island. It's a no brainer. Listen as @PeterMYeo explains why:

"When woman thrive in societies around the world, it makes us safer and more prosperous here at home." -@USAmbUN @michaelgwaltz As @RepDean and @PeterMYeo know well, the work of @UN agencies like @UNFPA is essential in making this happen.

"$7.88 — that's what it costs to protect a mother and an infant in a challenging world." Thank you to @RepDean for her continued support of agencies like @UNFPA and their work protecting women and girls around the world.

I was honored to provide testimony yesterday to the House Foreign Affairs Oversight Subcommittee on the topic of @UN reform, an important and timely discussion. My thoughts in the video below and check the @BetterWorldOrg for additional insights.

Reform at the @UN is nothing new. Hear from @PeterMYeo explain in his testimony to @HouseForeignGOP about the reform effort undertaken at the UN over the last decade.

One word. Unprecedented. Listen in on this exchange between @rep_jackson and @BetterWorldOrg President @PeterMYeo on how missed payments are impacting U.S. leadership and leverage at the @UN.

"If we abandon this investment, we don't just weaken the @UN, we weaken ourselves." Thank you to @rep_jackson for his powerful statement in support of US funding for the UN at yesterday's @HouseForeign hearing.

"Any place the US has withdrawn [at the UN]..., China comes in with more money and more influence." Hear from Subcommittee Ranking Member @JaredEMoskowitz why continued US engagement at the @UN is a strategic priority:

How does the U.S. bring about the sustained change it hopes to see at the @UN? Full engagement and renewed funding. Carrying out Congress' FY26 Appropriations Bill that provides full UN funding is a good first step. Hear it from @BetterWorldOrg President @PeterMYeo:

In his testimony to @HouseForeignGOP at yesterday's hearing on @UN reform, @BetterWorldOrg President @PeterMYeo discussed the historic nature of the recent #UN80 reform agenda. With leadership from @USAmbUN and @USUN, the U.S. asked for change and the UN delivered.

This year's Secretary-General selection process will be the most consequential in @UN history. Following last week's series of interactive dialogues with the race's four candidates, here are my thoughts on why this process is so important and what comes next:

As #WorldImmunizationWeek kicks off, we're highlighting the work of @UN agencies like @UNICEFGUYSUR. By strengthening vaccine cold storage, @UNICEF is working to make sure all of Guyana's rural and indigenous communities have a @ShotAtLife.

"Talking to the @UN about what they do well which is the delivery of humanitarian aid at scale, in remote locations, with a robust supply chain... watching that happen on the ground is outstanding." @AmbUNReform speaking with @SenateForeign about the UN's impact:

The fact that @USAmbUN and @AmbUNReform were able to cut the @UN budget by $570 million speaks volumes about the Trump Administration and its commitment to the American people. I'm glad both ambassadors spoke before the committee today about their efforts to reform the UN.

With the help of US leadership, the @UN has delivered meaningful reform — roughly $570 million in cuts. What will these reforms mean and how can the US continue to engage? Learn more: betterworldcampaign.org/budget/the-us-…
