OMG! #PEPFAR funding is being withheld by the OMB! Contact your reps today and urge them to take back the power of the purse: https://act.pih.org/pepfar-apportionment

Previously, the organization’s guiding ambition was to end #HIV as a #PublicHealth threat by 2030. But the #Trump admin has targeted #PEPFAR for sharp reductions, part of a broad move to cut #ForeignAid, which federal ofcls believe is wasteful & a misuse of taxpayers’ money.

The abrupt termination of congressionally approved funding for the nonprofit organizations that partnered w/PEPFAR has already hobbled the program & crippled the global HIV response.
