Bill Summary
A BILL To provide funding for programs and activities of the National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and Tuberculosis Prevention of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the "HIV Prevention Now Act", provides $2,165,000,000 in dedicated funding for fiscal year 2026 specifically to the National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and Tuberculosis Prevention, which is a division of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The funding is designed to be supplemental to existing CDC appropriations, meaning it represents additional resources beyond the agency's standard budget. The bill stipulates that these funds must be used exclusively for the specified prevention programs and cannot be transferred to any other entity outside of the National Center. By ring-fencing these funds, the legislation aims to ensure robust financial support for critical public health efforts focused on preventing the spread of HIV, viral hepatitis, sexually transmitted diseases, and tuberculosis, which are significant ongoing public health challenges in the United States.
