Nancy Pelosi is promising swift action after President Trump’s powerful move to pull funding from the Chinese sympathizing World Health Organization.
According to The Hill:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is vowing to challenge President Trump’s decision to halt U.S. funding to the World Health Organization (WHO), a controversial move that comes as the coronavirus outbreak continues to ravage the globe.
…
“This decision is dangerous, illegal and will be swiftly challenged,” Pelosi said in a statement.
Trump in a Tuesday announcement blamed the WHO for “severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of the coronavirus,” while stating that the U.S. is halting its payments — between $400 million and $500 million a year — to the organization.
In particular, he blamed the premier international health organization for being too closely intertwined with China, stating that WHO failed to “adequately obtain” and “share information in a timely and transparent fashion.”
Pelosi did not provide details on how she was planning to respond to President Trump’s decision.
