Can you imagine not being allowed to travel to another country or apply to become a legal resident because of a medical condition?

Under current U.S. regulations, our government has been telling countless individuals living with HIV that they are banned from the United States. Last year, Congress and the President took a huge step by removing this ban from federal law, but one step remains.

U.S. immigration laws require the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to maintain a list of diseases that render people unable to enter the United States. HIV remains on that list, but HHS has finally issued a proposal to remove it.  That proposal is open to public comment, and it's important that they hear that folks like you and me support lifting the ban.

Please take a minute to submit a comment saying you support ending this discriminatory treatment of people with HIV. Just click below - it only takes a minute.
