Kaiser Family Foundation Publishes New Issue Brief On U.S. Global Health Policy Under Trump Administration

Kaiser Family Foundation: A Check Up on U.S. Global Health Policy, After One Year of the Trump Administration
“…In this brief, we take stock of the U.S. global health response on the occasion of one year of the Trump Presidency and look ahead to the global health policy issues that are likely to be front and center in the coming months and years. Overall, there are a mix of challenges facing the U.S. global health response, some of which pre-dated Trump and others that are the result of decisions and actions of the administration, including proposals to significantly scale back funding. At the same time, global health programs still enjoy strong bipartisan support in Congress and, according to our just-released poll, about half of the public still wants the U.S. to play a major or leading role in improving health in developing countries…” (Kates et al., January 2018).
