The short explanation of this alert was:
Since the December 26 tsunami, millions of women in the affected regions have been in desperate need of health care, particularly prenatal, maternal, and family planning services. UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, was one of the first organizations on the ground to help meet these needs, and it remains the only multilateral organization dedicated to reproductive health.
The Bush administration has withheld the congressionally approved contribution from UNFPA for the past three years, but this week the Senate will vote to release $3 million to UNFPA for its emergency relief work. This funding will help UNFPA provide emergency prenatal care and delivery assistance to pregnant women, and serve as a resource for family planning services.
Tell your senators to support this crucial amendment!
