"Rubio continues to defy the will of Congress and the American people. He is diverting funding, eliminating technical experts from global HIV response, and program performance is already suffering."

Today, public health and HIV activists were arrested while interrupting Secretary of State Marco Rubio's speech at the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing.
Our message rang out loud and clear:
"Rubio's cuts kill people with AIDS. PEPFAR saves lives."
What followed was a crisis of neglect — stigma, political indifference, and a research establishment that moved too slowly while lives hung in the balance.
The history of HIV isn't just about scientific discovery. It's about people demanding that research and discovery serve everyone.
On Friday night, TAG stood alongside our partners at the @nycaidsmemorial.bsky.social for a candlelight vigil, rally, march, and die in.
The event marked HIV/AIDS Long-Term Survivors Awareness Day and commemorates a solemn milestone: the 45th anniversary of the CDC’s first report on the epidemic.
Activists from @housingworksnyc.bsky.social, Health GAP, TAG, and ACT UP are calling on Congress to block these devastating cuts.
"Congress must stop Secretary Rubio before he dismantles PEPFAR." — Kendall Martinez-Wright, Government Relations & Policy Associate
Rubio and the Trump administration have been delivering critical blow after blow to #PEPFAR — the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief.
Last year, Trump dismantled USAID, effectively upending global HIV and AIDS programs. Now, CDC support for PEPFAR will end in most countries by September.

45 years ago tomorrow, the CDC published a few paragraphs describing five cases of rare pneumonia among young gay men in LA.
No one knew it marked the beginning of one of the deadliest epidemics in modern history. 🧵
