Thanks to NYC Results members and their fantastic Representatives for supporting the successful letter to Treasury Secretary Geithner. On receipt of the bi-partisan letter the Secretary released a press release voicing the U.S. support of debt cancellation! This was a great effort and thanks again to the signing members: Ackerman, Clarke, Crowley, Engel, Maloney, Meeks, Nadler, Rangel, Serrano, Towns and Velázquez. The U.S. message is now clear: Grants, not Loans, for Haiti. |
