The Hill's Congress Blog: Insurace Should Cover Routine HIV Tests
I am all too familiar with the rising spread of HIV/AIDS in my home state of Florida; Miami-Dade County where I reside has one of the largest HIV infection rates in the nation.
This legislation will provide Americans with the financial means to get tested and know their status, which is so important in order to prevent further infections. I have worked hard to acquire funding for HIV prevention, research, and testing and I am pleased that such a bill is before the House.
