Do the Board members get travel?  I thought they didn't.  

I suggest replacing the last sentence with:  The Council appreciates
your prompt consideration of this request.  We look forward to receiving
the requested travel expense authorization soon.

Taking Tim's comment into account and with some other rephrasing.

Dear Dr. Twomey,

I am writing on behalf to the GNSO council with a urgent request for
travel funding for all GNSO council members for the New Delhi meeting.
A strong majority of those in the council, with no dissent, have
requested that all GNSO council members receive the same consideration
for their travel expenses as Nomcom Appointees  to the council receive.
This support should be at the same level as is received by Members of
the ICANN Board.

The urgency of the situation, though the request has been a standing
request for a while now,  is because  several council members have
indicated that they will not be able to attend the meeting in New Delhi
without such support.

Please get back to me as soon as possible regarding this request.

Thank you,

Avri Doria
Chair, GNSO Council
