The GOP-controlled House of Representatives opened hearings today on
its reauthorization of the Ryan White CARE Act, the comprehensive
federal care and treatment support program for communities and
patients struggling with HIV/AIDS. The bi-partisan bill, drafted by
Congressman Tom Coburn (R-OK), Vice Chairman of the House Commerce
Subcommittee on Health and the Environment, and Congressman Henry
Waxman (D-CA), was hailed by the nation's largest gay Republican
organization as a major step forward in the federal care response to
AIDS. |
