US cities and counties will bear brunt of the cruel policy shifts in the #BigUglyBill. That is why we signed on to an @AFTunion ad published in @nytimenews today. We declare a betrayal of American values in the gutting of #Medicaid. aft.org/they-betrayed-…

4 days of #Continuum2025 have reinforced for me just how very important it is to be in community to address the needs of people who are affected by #HIV. Deeply grateful to ~500 delegates for an examination of how we optimize the care continuum in the current environment.
The @HHSGov FY2026 budget brief is out. Mixed bag on #HIV: 🇺🇸 U.S. HIV budget mostly flatlined vis-à-vis prior years, with Ending the HIV Epidemic funding tenuously preserved 🌐 Global HIV, #tuberculosis, and immunization budget cuts end @CDCgov engagement Advocacy needed for…

I opened @IAPAC’s session at #NaLa2025 today with some observations of the challenges faced by #Latinx communities in relation to #HIV and noted the need to rally leadership in @FastTrackCities.
New @GlobalHealthBMJ paper describes how the intersection of increased urban growth and poverty has impacted #HIV incidence and prevalence. It draws from multiple sources, including #FastTrackCities. gh.bmj.com/content/10/4/e…
In a commentary published today, Editor Emeritus @JoseM_Zuniga and the journal’s Editor-in-Chief @DrDuncombe commit to “Uncompromising Scientific Integrity” as @JIAPAC_AIDS’ guiding principle, countering ideological pressures against #DEI. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
STATEMENT: Science sidelined. Public health attacked. Read a statement by @JoseM_Zuniga naming the damage (cruel and misguided) and proposing a path forward. #ScienceMatters #ProtectPublicHealth iapac.org/2025/04/02/iap…
Heading to Washington, DC, today for #AIDSWatch2025. The stakes could not be higher. With the US and global #HIV responses under assault, we must protect progress, defend equity, and demand 100% accountability. #HIVjustice
The Trump administration has reportedly dismissed the entire staff of the @HHSGov Office of Infectious Disease & #HIV/AIDS Policy. During a time of rising STI rates & 100% preventable HIV transmissions? #PublicHealth
Cutting OIDP was not enough? The Office of Minority Health? Gone. Policy and Data Division supporting the Ryan White Program? Gutted. Hundreds at @HRSAgov Bureau of Primary Health Care? Fired. This is a full-on attack on health equity and the U.S. #HIV response.
Read @IAPAC and @FTC2030 letter to federal employees who sustain the U.S. health system, including the #HIV response. #HealthEquity #ScienceMatters #WeStandWithYou iapac.org/2025/03/24/ope…
We have seen the callousness with which DOGE, acquiesced by instruments of government, dismantled @USAID. We must not allow @CDC_HIV to be similarly hobbled. Call your Congressional representatives. Tell them to #SaveHIVFunding. Senate: (202) 224-3121 House: (202) 225-3121
ALERT: There are reports of an impending cut in @CDC_HIV prevention funds – possibly up to $700m. We urge @IAPAC members to call your Senators and Reps. to halt these cuts. Call the Capitol Switchboard: Senate: (202) 224-3121 House: (202) 225-3121 #SaveHIVFunding
