Jim Kolbe: “Continuing this colloquy, just so you have the numbers correct here as we see them here: in 2004, total appropriations…”

On the recordJune 28, 2005
Continuing this colloquy, just so you have the numbers correct here as we see them here: in 2004, total appropriations for international AIDS programs was $2.4 billion. In 2005 it was $2.9 billion; and in 2006, the current year that we are funding, it is $3.2 billion. That gives you a total of $8.5 billion which means that we have $6.5 billion left to do in the next 2 years in order to reach the $15 billion. That would be slightly less, actually, than $3 billion a year to meet that. So I do believe we are on target. Mr. Chairman, I yield to the gentlewoman from New York (Mrs. Lowey).
