Referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and in addition to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, 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.
This resolution expresses Congress's support for continuing U.S. efforts to eliminate pediatric HIV/AIDS worldwide, particularly among children and pregnant women in high-burden countries like those in Sub-Saharan Africa. The resolution highlights that while progress has been made—such as increasing the percentage of pregnant women with HIV receiving treatment from 17 percent in 2005 to 84 percent in 2024—significant gaps remain, with only 55 percent of children living with HIV receiving antiretroviral therapy compared to 78 percent of adults. The resolution calls for the U.S. government to strengthen its commitment through programs like PEPFAR (President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief) and the Global Alliance to End AIDS in Children by 2030, while supporting expanded access to HIV prevention, testing, treatment services, and new long-acting prevention drugs. No new funding is authorized by this resolution, which serves as a statement of congressional intent to maintain and enhance U.S. leadership in the global fight against pediatric HIV/AIDS.
