“For two decades, The Borgen Project has stood in the gap for millions of people facing poverty and food insecurity around the world. As chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, I’m grateful for their partnership on initiatives like my Global Fragility Act, which is working to stabilize volatile areas and address the root causes of fragility in developing countries. I’m proud to serve as an Honorary Board Member at The Borgen Project and look forward to seeing their work continue to change our world over the next 20 years.”
