Trump Admin Plans Global Health Cuts | Philadelphia News

New analysis reveals the Trump administration is quietly slashing global health funding by more than half by 2030 through secretive bilateral deals with over a dozen countries, targeting critical programs against HIV/AIDS and Ebola. These agreements, shrouded in secrecy by the State Department, are exposing a stark disconnect between congressional appropriations and actual spending plans — sparking alarm from watchdogs like Public Citizen and Partners in Health. Once bipartisan pillars of U.S. foreign policy, global health initiatives now face an “America First” pivot that demands recipient nations shoulder far greater financial burdens — especially in impoverished African nations like Rwanda, where U.S. aid could plummet to just 3% of prior levels. Meanwhile, delays in spending already approved funds for programs like PEPFAR threaten to unravel vital disease prevention efforts, risking preventable suffering and global health instability.
