Dear Friend,
 
Today, the Make US Strong campaign is releasing a powerful ad[http://makeusstrong.com/muss_blog/watch-gi-joe-stars-in-our-new-ad/] about how international development keeps us safe -- and we need your help to make sure people watch it.

Watch the video now:

A few years ago in Jordan, I sat down with a teenage Iraqi refugee named Ahmad to talk about his future. Having served as an Army officer in Iraq and Afghanistan, I knew what he and his friends had survived -- and yet here he was, working toward medical school instead of joining a dead-end terrorist group like too many others.
 
What made the difference for Ahmad was a school, partially funded by USAID. American soldiers had safeguarded Ahmad’s family in Baghdad. Now, American international development was giving him a future.  
 
It’s stories like Ahmad’s that make me proud that the Make US Strong campaign is advocating for international development. But it wasn’t modern conflicts that taught us how important international development is. We learned it from the Greatest Generation, who, after winning World War II, rebuilt Europe so that our allies and former foes alike would not fall back into instability and conflict.
 
It is in this spirit that, today, we’re releasing an ad supporting international development called “GI Joe.” This ad reminds us of what our grandparents knew: international development keeps a great nation strong and secure.
 
We’ll be airing this ad online, and in New Hampshire and other television markets. Can you help spread the word about this video, and donate to keep this ad on the air?
