From Houston Voice (//%22http://www.houstonvoice.com/2005/8-5/news/national/white.cfm%22):

Ryan White proposal would shift funds to South

...A revised proposal for funding the Ryan White CARE Act may shift some resources from densely populated metropolitan areas to Southern states, sources familiar with the plan said...

...An AIDS activist who spoke on the condition of anonymity said that a group of AIDS activists met with Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) the day after the White House released its principles. The source did not say what was discussed, only that Coburn is expected to be a leader in the reauthorization process, which is now in the hands of Congress...
