President Bush Announces Five Year, 30 Billion HIV AIDS Plan - May 30, 2007

President Bush on Wednesday said, “The US and our citizens have tackled HIV AIDS aggressively. Many HIV positive Americans are able to lead productive lives. The story has been fairly different elsewhere, particularly in sub Saharan Africa. nowadays I ask Congress to demonstrate America’s continuing commitment to fighting the

scourge of HIV AIDS by reauthorizing that legislation now. I ask Congress to double our initial commitment and approve an additional 30 billion for HIV AIDS prevention, for care, and for treatment by the next five years.”
