U.S. Global Leadership Coalition The non-profit company is based in Washington, DC. The U.S. Global Leadership Coalition is a broad, bipartisan network of over 500 organizations—including businesses, NGOs, faith groups, military veterans, and national security experts—dedicated to strengthening U.S. leadership through strategic investments in development and diplomacy alongside defense. The coalition advocates for robust funding of the international affairs budget, emphasizing that civilian tools such as diplomacy and development are essential complements to military power in addressing complex challenges like terrorism, pandemics, fragile states, and foreign adversaries. The coalition highlights that these investments enhance national security, economic prosperity, and humanitarian leadership by preventing conflicts, supporting global health, expanding markets for American businesses, and promoting the rule of law. USGLC operates nationwide with state advisory committees and offers resources, advocacy opportunities, and events to engage policymakers, community leaders, and the public. Its leadership includes former cabinet officials, secretaries of state and defense, and retired military officers, supporting an approach that integrates diplomacy, development, and defense. The company was founded in 1995. | |
