Saves• Tuberculosis funding received a 19 percent cut in the administration’s FY16 budget but was
restored to the FY15 level of $236 million.• Global Fund was cut to $1.1 billion by the administration’s budget and Congress restored
the final funding to FY15 level of $1.35 billion, which keeps the U.S. in a leadership position as we enter a Global Fund replenishment year.
• Basic Education funding was again restored to $800 million.• TOTAL restored: $495 million
Wins• Increase of $25 million to the Global Partnership for Education. This increases the funding
by 56 percent over FY15 levels. • Increase of $35 million to Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance and to the overall Maternal and Child
Health (MCH) Account. This maintains that Gavi’s increase to meet the $1 billion over 4 year pledge is not at the expense of other MCH programs.
• Increase of $10 million to Nutrition account over FY15 levels and $24 million over the President’s budget request! This big sign of bi-partisan support from Congress provides additional leverage for a bold pledge as the U.S. approaches the second Nutrition for Growth pledging conference in Rio Brazil in August 2016.
• TOTAL of $70 million more to these programs in FY16.
