Congresswoman Gwen Moore Slams CDC Ending HIV Programs in Wisconsin, Calls on Decision to be Reversed “After nominating an HHS Secretary who doesn’t believe that HIV causes AIDS, this Administration is now eliminating life-saving HIV prevention programs. Make no mistake, the most vulnerable will suffer for this decision. Wisconsin needs these federal resources for HIV prevention efforts and to reach populations especially at risk, including transgender individuals and people of color. We need to put more funding toward these public health interventions; the federal government cannot ‘streamline’ lives. We cannot afford to backslide on decades-long efforts to end the HIV epidemic. I am calling on this funding to be restored back to our communities, so that Wisconsin residents can access these life-saving resources.” |
