Senate Signals Sustained Commitment for the Global Fund in the Coming Years

Friends of the global fight - "This week the House and Senate Appropriations Committees reported out FY 2019 funding bills for the Department of State, Foreign Operations and Related Programs (SFOPS), both sustaining funding for critical global health programs including $1.35 billion for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (Global Fund).

The Senate SFOPS Appropriations report includes language signaling continued support through the coming years: “In advance of the Global Fund Replenishment Conference in 2019, the Committee anticipates that the U.S. will contribute no less than $1,350,000,000 for each of the 3 fiscal years following the Conference.” This affirmation of ongoing support is crucial as other donors consider their pledges for the upcoming Global Fund Replenishment."
