“Many of us in the Senate are parents or grandparents of young children. This is Abdullah. He was a 1-year-old, starving in a war zone in Yemen until his life was saved by emergency rations sent by the American people through UNICEF. This bill ends the entire direct American contribution to UNICEF. Are we so calloused by politics that we would make this grievous and avoidable error, moral error? Do we believe it is the will of our constituents that children like Abdullah should die? We are U.S. Senators with the power through this vote to save children's lives and to spare their parents the heartbreak of a small child's death. Vote aye.”
