“The US spent $46 billion on foreign aid last year. That was more than any other country by far. US taxpayers deserved to know where that money was going and what it was doing. They would be shocked to find that much of it goes to fund anti-American countries and causes.”
— Nikki Haley
Haley formally launched her 2024 campaign for the White House on February 15, pitching herself to voters as part of a “new generation” of Republican leaders who can win at the ballot box.
In an op-ed for the New York Post, Haley wrote: “I will cut every cent in foreign aid for countries that hate us. A strong America doesn’t pay off the bad guys. A proud America doesn’t waste our people’s hard-earned money. And the only leaders who deserve our trust are those who stand up to our enemies and stand beside our friends”, according to a report from newsmobile.in.
