Witness notes proportion of USAID funds expended at House hearing

Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett and Center for Strategic and International Studies Sustainable Development and Resilience Initiative Director Noam Unger discuss why Republicans treat USAID like the devil and asks Unger if it receives 50% of the US budget, to which Unger confirms that money going to USAID is less than one cent if the entire federal budget is one dollar, prompting Crockett to emphasize they're focusing on less than 1% of the budget instead of the other 99%, and urges Americans to wake up and start asking questions about these other areas at a House Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency hearing about foreign aid priorities.
