re: #206 charlz

I can’t get your link to work. From barflytom’s #148:


If that’s accurate, it appears that the FY11 $735,807,000 budget for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases is predicated on a transfer of $156,344,000, which is what the Republican proposal appears to eliminate. I thinks that’s all barfly was trying to understand.

And is that where the Mother Jones article gets the 156 million figure ?

I can’t find a figure for what actual spending would be under the GOP proposal, and how it would compare with the previous year.
There still seems to be a lot of unspent stimulus money and pandemic funds sloshing around somewhere.
