Republican rep indicates he will be 'a no' on Trump-backed rescissions measure if AIDS relief cut

As the Trump administration and congressional Republicans eye passage of a rescission proposal, Rep. Don Bacon, a Nebraska Republican who doesn't shy away from bucking President Donald Trump, has indicated that he won't support it if it guts an AIDS relief program.

The president's proposed clawbacks include millions of dollars pertaining to global health programs.

"I told them I’m a no," the congressman said of the measure, according to the New York Times. "I just want to make sure we’re funding the medicine. We want to prevent AIDS, it’s a noble program, it’s George Bush’s legacy. I put the marker out there; we’ll see."
