Summary
Mourns the loss of lives as a result of the January 12, 2010, earthquake in Haiti.

Reaffirms the Senate's solidarity with the people of Haiti and its commitment to Haiti's long-term reconstruction. Encourages the U.S. government, the government of Haiti, and international donors to: (1) give priority to policies that would attract private sector investment and diaspora participation; (2) develop participatory mechanisms to involve civil society in Haiti at all stages of the cholera and post-earthquake responses; and (3) give priority to programs that would protect and involve vulnerable populations, including internally displaced persons, children, and persons with disabilities.
