Trump administration A government official told FOX News Digital on Wednesday that it plans to reduce cost cuts by combining two similar HIV/AIDS prevention programs from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Centers for Health Resources and Services Management (HRSA). The cuts will be related to administrative costs and expenditures related to DEI.
The tentative proposal remains a “concept of planning”, a plan to merge it into HRSA to simplify efficiency – consistent with government reductions Federal Government Agenda – Since it doesn’t make sense to have two separate programs perform similar functions, officials said.
“One of them is still very preliminary, but obviously you don’t need a $200 million budget, $1 billion of which goes to CDC “There is another $1 billion toward HRSA. Some of it will be used to cover administrative overhead and similar costs,” the official said.
Both the CDC and HRSA are part of the Department of Health and Human Services, supervised by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

“If this is gone through it, it would be more certain…just like checking DEI spending on both programs,” the official said. The Trump administration has begun cutting federal funding for DEI programs and initiatives in one of his early days. Administrative Action Title “Ends the radical and wasteful government DEI program and favors.”
Although the CDC has a division dedicated to preventing HIV and other infectious diseases, HRSA also runs a program called the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP), which provides health care for low-income patients with HIV.
