tbfightersLesotho was on track to meet UNAIDS' goal of ending the #AIDS epidemic as a public health threat by 2030. Until it lost 23% of #PEPFAR funds. Now, community clinics are closed and patients don't have access to treatment: https://apnews.com/projects/Lesotho-usaid-cuts-africa-HIV-aids-pepfar/

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
NonilexPreviously, 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.
Created during the George W. Bush admin, the #HIV treatment & prevention program has long enjoyed broad bipartisan support. It is often cited as the single most effective #PublicHealth campaign ever, saving an estimated 26 million lives in #LowIncome countries over 22 years.
The draft plan for shutting it down in coming years underscores ongoing tension between #Congress, which has repeatedly indicated support for #PEPFAR, & #Trump admin ofcls who wish to sharply curtail or end it.
