In 2013, we were within reach of an AIDS-free generation. But Trump’s cuts to global health programs stifled that progress. We must continue urging federal policymakers to invest in prevention, treatment, and community support.

Today we reaffirm our commitment to ending this epidemic. #WorldAIDSDay
