Dear NDI Chairman's Council Members,

Yesterday, the House Foreign Affairs Committee held a hearing on the state
of democracy in fragile states, including both threats and success stories,
with Carl Gershman (NED), Dan Twining (IRI) and myself as witnesses.

The hearing lasted three hours and was very well attended. Members stayed
until the very end patiently waiting to ask their questions, with over two
dozen members in attendance. Chairman Royce, Ranking Member Engel and the
entire committee expressed deep, bipartisan support for democracy
assistance in general and the efforts of NDI, IRI and the NED in
particular. The hearing was a powerful statement of support for our work.

Attached is my testimony.

Best,
Ken
