US House Approves Measure to Extend Ryan White Funding for 30 Days Abstract The continuing resolution passed by the US House on Friday extends funding to the legislative branch for 30 days, and it includes a provision to fund the Ryan White CARE Act. The act disburses $2.1 billion to HIV/AIDS service providers around the country; it was reauthorized in 2006 but includes a sunset provision ending the program on Sept. 30, 2009. If the Senate approves the continuing resolution as expected, Congress will have an additional month to renew the act before it expires.
