Dear Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi and House Committee on Foreign Affairs' Chairman Howard L. Berman,

I urge you to pass H.R. 1410: Newborn, Child, and Mother Survival Act of 2009, and to make assistance to reduce mortality and improve the health of newborns, children, and mothers in developing countries a priority for U.S. foreign aid.

Every year, more than 9 million children die from preventable and treatable diseases, and more than 536,000 women die from pregnancy and birth-related causes around the globe. These deaths can be prevented if health services are provided to parts of the world where they are most needed. This is a good investment: ensuring not only the survival but the good health of women and children now means reduced health costs in the future and higher productivity in communities.

Infants and mothers desperately need your help - please support H.R. 1410.
