The Senate will remove a provision in a rescissions bill that would have cut funding for a program that combats HIV and AIDS, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) announced on July 15.
The rescissions bill would claw back $9 billion in federal spending, a $400 million reduction from the $9.4 billion in original cuts.
