  • Title: If you thought this year was difficult, wait until next year.
    Journal: AIDS Policy Law; 1999 Dec 24; 14(22):7. PubMed ID: 11366661.
    Abstract:
    Despite a budgetary surplus for the year 2000, budget constraints for next year's funding of AIDS programs will be even greater. In 2000, voters will elect a new President, one-third of the Senate, and all of the House of Representatives. Such election conditions will greatly politicize the funding process. Daniel Zingale of AIDS Action is pressing the White House Office of Management and Budget for an increase of at least 25 percent in prevention funding. The current budget calls for $695.3 million for CDC prevention programs, an increase of 5.7 percent from 1999. Zingale says that increasing pressure to meet the costs of federally-funded HIV treatment programs justifies making prevention "a necessity." Additional highlights from the fiscal 2000 budget are provided.
