Global Call April 22

Allison was quite pleased to hear I would be at the International Conference for two days.

We talked about appropriations. Congressman Loebsack did sign on to the letter asking for $500 million for microcredit. The RESULTS Washington office is working on the appropriations requests now for Senator Harkin's office. They are so helpful! Senator Grassley took the requests over email about six weeks ago.

Education is the new focus for global work. President Obama campaigned on a Global Fund for Education, and I committed to working on a public access tv program on Education for All. Is anyone interested in learning about the campaign and doing the tv production?
