Humanitarian responders need to have flexibility to respond to needs on the ground by the fastest and most cost-efficient means possible, be it in-kind or locally purchased food aid. Having cash contributions available for local or regional purchases could increase the speed and volume of food available to address a crisis and would enable us to feed many more people. - Raymond Offenheiser Quotes

However, the details of the plan for spending these funds will reveal if the administration is committed to addressing the vast and urgent housing needs on the hurricane-devastated region. - Raymond Offenheiser Quotes

Our whole U.S. program was built around addressing endemic poverty, not disaster relief. But for a variety of reasons, not the least of them what happened - or didn't happen - after Katrina, we're looking at that becoming more of what we do here. - Raymond Offenheiser Quotes

The President's budget calls for stricter agricultural payment caps is an important reform of an outdated agricultural subsidy program is rife with abuse and loopholes and hurts small farmers here and abroad. The U.S. government spends billion of dollars each year on farm payments that are heavily concentrated in large-scale commercial operations, distorting international markets and causing controversy and unfairness in global trade. - Raymond Offenheiser Quotes

Over his presidency, President Bush has made great strides to increase foreign aid, so today's announcement of cuts to core development funding is a big disappointment. Although the US is the largest donor in the world, and US assistance had been on the increase, the US still lags behind other developed countries in that our contributions are small compared to the size of our federal budget and economy. - Raymond Offenheiser Quotes
