The HIV Ban: Update

By The Daily Dish

Here's the latest: PEPFAR is tangled in legislative politicking, but there's some hope that a compromise could be achieved in the next couple of weeks. There's a bipartisan consensus on removing the anachronistic Helms era ban on HIV-positive visitors, tourists and immigrants - but other issues are stalling the bill. Anything you can do to help would be awesome it would enable me, among many others, to stay in the US after next March. Perhaps the best thing is to email Harry Reid or Tom Coburn. Background here. Email Reid here. and Coburn here.
