We've made so much progress between PrEP and PEP and HIV awareness campaigns that this kind of move feels even darker.
America cannot fall behind in leading the world in science. We can't cede ground, but that's exactly what this decision does.

We were on the cusp of an immense breakthrough: A cure to our HIV epidemic. A vaccine to prevent one of the world’s deadliest diseases.
Until RFK Jr. defunded vaccine trials because a cure to HIV isn't as important as tax breaks for rich people like Big Pharma CEOs.
How can I explain to Minnesotans that they are losing their health insurance because Republicans couldn’t be bothered to read the bill?
He bought one Republican and it didn’t work out… so he’s going to try it again?
We know what this means. Women in this country have already died in states with abortion bans.
Doctors are forced to consult the lawyers — can they do what’s best for their patient or do they need to wait for her condition to get worse?

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Congratulations Sue as you begin a new phase of your life, and thank you so much for your service.
With Sue as our model, we will keep on fighting back against attacks on the largest source of insurance for children’s mental health treatment in the nation (Medicaid), and renewed efforts by people up to the Secretary of HHS to stigmatize folks with mental illness and behavior health challenges.
We have made progress these last few years, like launching the 9-8-8 hotline nationwide, and we have huge challenges ahead.
As Executive Director of NAMI Minnesota she passed laws to require mental health training for teachers, expand crisis and early intervention services, strengthen how insurance companies cover mental health care. As Sue retires from leading NAMI, we owe her a huge debt of gratitude.
Sue Abderholden is a force of nature, and her advocacy for people experiencing mental health challenges is unmatched. She started at the grassroots, working for Paul Wellstone and then working with kids with developmental disabilities.
I hope for justice for those hurt in this attack and that every American can feel safe in this country.
I am still thinking about the atrocity of the attacks last weekend in Boulder.
The rise of antisemitic violence across this country is unmistakable and unacceptable, and we all need to strongly stand against it.
Progress isn’t always a straight line, but I have to believe America will one day protect all our neighbors under law.
That’s what brings me hope this month. Happy Pride.

President Trump has now pardoned 9 members of Congress convicted of crimes
RFK Jr. not knowing how to cite research and just making shit up as he goes is… not that surprising.
Mind boggling that four Republicans couldn’t grow a spine and block this guy. Now look where we are.
