Going the Extra Mile is a new policy guide developed by GEC with support from @GileadSciences , designed to support legislators in high-income countries in pressuring their governments to step up commitments to the HIV response.

USAID represents less than 1% of the national budget. Every day, the employees there work on behalf of the American people to keep us safe and promote our values and interests. They don't deserve to be treated like shit by weirdo Elon and his sidekick Don the Con.

We welcome the US emergency waiver to allow HIV treatment under PEPFAR to continue, but remain concerned about the funding freeze's impact on wider HIV-related services and future support for the world's most vulnerable people. We urge the US Congress to secure PEPFAR's future.

Not having enough doctors diminishes the quality of care for patients, increases healthcare costs with more emergency room visits, and exacerbates healthcare disparities for rural and low-income communities. (2/3)

This was an immigrant bill, but it was also so much more than that. It was pro-economic development, pro-health care access, and pro-business that will meet many needs for many, many years ahead. https://t.co/57MTslIWKN

A new state law will reshape opportunities and health outcomes for people living with Down syndrome. How is this law different from others like it?
