Suggested phone call/voicemail script:
My name is [name], a constituent of [Senator/Representative name]. I am [title] at [organization/congregation] in [location] and I’m calling to urge the [Senator/Representative] to restore U.S. foreign assistance funding. Foreign assistance is just 1% of the federal budget, but it saves lives, promotes democracy, engenders goodwill toward the U.S. and helps to prevent conflicts and violence. I fully support my tax dollars going toward these programs. Please do all that you can to restore U.S. foreign assistance. Thank you.
