Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
H.Res. 919 is a commemorative resolution that celebrates World AIDS Day (December 1) and expresses support for global and domestic efforts to combat HIV and AIDS. The resolution highlights the scale of the epidemic—with an estimated 40.8 million people living with HIV or AIDS worldwide and over 790,000 AIDS-related deaths in the United States since the epidemic began—while acknowledging disproportionate impacts on communities of color, transgender individuals, and men who have sex with men. It commends existing programs like the Ryan White CARE Act, the Minority AIDS Initiative, and the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), which has saved an estimated 26 million lives globally, and calls for continued funding for prevention, treatment, and research. The resolution encourages governments and organizations to promote the U=U (Undetectable=Untransmittable) message, expand access to antiretroviral therapy and preventive medications like PrEP, and work toward ending the AIDS epidemic by 2030. As a commemorative resolution rather than substantive legislation, this measure does not authorize funding or create new programs, but rather expresses congressional support for these ongoing initiatives.
