“On agreeing to the Greene (GA) amendment (A012) Failed by recorded vote: 104 - 326 (Roll no. 206).”
This amendment tried to remove money from the military budget that pays for HIV prevention education programs in foreign countries. Because the amendment failed, that funding stays in the bill for now.
This amendment highlights a debate over whether the military budget should be used for global public health initiatives or reserved exclusively for direct military operations and personnel costs.
