A resolution recognizing the critical role that PEPFAR has played in the global fight against HIV/AIDS.

SRES 139 is a non-binding Senate resolution recognizing the U.S. global HIV/AIDS program PEPFAR (President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief) for its role in reducing HIV/AIDS impact worldwide. It highlights PEPFAR's proven achievements, including saving over 25 million lives, providing antiretroviral treatment to 20.1 million people, and reducing new HIV cases among youth by 50-65% in supported regions. The resolution urges continued congressional funding for PEPFAR to advance the goal of ending HIV/AIDS as a public health threat by 2030. It directly affects PEPFAR's global operations and beneficiaries, including 1.6 million adolescent girls supported through the DREAMS program, without creating new laws or altering existing policy.
