Why was funding for HIV research so controversial and politicized?

Each year, the U.S. government spends billions of dollars to help people in the United States and countries around the world who are living with HIV/AIDS.

By law, Federal programs must provide information on how they spend the funds they receive. Transparency in government promotes accountability, and provides meaningful access to information so that citizens can know what their government is doing and how Federal dollars are being spent. Review the chart below for an overview of Federal budget allocations for domestic HIV/AIDS programs and research in FY2018 and FY2019. This chart is being updated. In the meantime, for information about FY2019 resources supporting Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) initiative preliminary activities, FY2020 budget allocations for additional resources for EHE activities, and EHE funding in the FY2021 budget proposal, see Ending the HIV Epidemic Funding.
