Nine more items for the future of our planet

In no particular order:

1. Fully fund the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria
2. Fully fund Debt Forgiveness
3. Fully fund Millennium Development Goals, set up task force to meet these challenges
4. Support ONE, dedicate an additional one percent of our budget for international development
5. End USAID requirement that US products be used in US funded international development projects
6. End restrictions on AIDS funding requiring recipient organizations to specifically denounce sex trade workers and banning those that provide abortions
7. Ratify the Kyoto Treaty
8. Sign on to the World Court, without special status
9. End embargo of Cuba and allow trade and travel to that island.
