Tell Congress: Pay Our Growing UN Arrears (2008)
On February 1, 2008 the US debt to the UN hit US$2.8 billion. The US has urged the organization to take on costly roles in Darfur, Iraq, Afghanistan and Lebanon, yet does not pay its share of the budget. To reduce the debt and support UN operations, Congress must pass an emergency spending bill that injects the UN peacekeeping budget with $744 million and the UN regular budget with $133 million. Write to members of Congress through the United Nations Association of the United States of America to make sure the US pays its debt.Archive of Activities on the UN Financial Crisis (1995-2002)
