Lawmakers Reach Agreement With White House To Preserve Funding For PEPFAR

TIME (7/15, Popli) reports, “Senate Republicans reached an agreement with the White House on Tuesday to preserve funding for...PEPFAR, backing off a proposed $400 million cut that had drawn sharp opposition from within their own ranks and threatened to derail President Donald Trump’s sweeping package of spending rescissions.” This “deal would shield PEPFAR from the Trump Administration’s plan to cancel billions in previously approved but unspent federal funds.”
