| Congress Passes Second Continuing Resolution for FY 2012
As reported by the National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Association (NFPRHA), October 4, the federal government has been operating under a second continuing resolution (CR) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2012, which will keep the government running through November 18. The CR requires a 1.503% across-the-board cut from FY 2011 spending levels. While a 1.503% cut to the Title X family planning program for the full 2012 fiscal year would be $4.5 million, cutting the program’s annual budget to $294.9, it is yet to be determined how the short-term CR cut would be implemented with regard to Title X or other programs. In addition, the Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies (Labor-HHS) Appropriations Subcommittee, released a draft Labor-HHS appropriations bill (H.R. 3070) on September 29. H.R. 3070 contains a number of harmful provisions, including the elimination of Title X. In addition, H.R. 3070 would make significant cuts to other programs, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP) programs and the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Initiative (TPPI). However, the Senate bill would flat-fund Title X at $299.4 million, and does not contain the same anti-family planning and anti-public health provisions as the House bill. For quick viewing, please find attached a funding table NFPRHA has created comparing the Senate and House funding levels for key programs. |
