The Honorable Mike Lee

Description

Have the State Department and USAID been using taxpayer dollars to fund progressive causes around the world, and thus turning U.S. allies away? Senator Lee, one of six U.S. Senators to ask Secretary Tillerson for a probe, will discuss potential future steps. He will be followed by a panel of experts who will discuss the impact of these policies in Latin America and Ireland, and how the Trump Administration can reform USAID.
