In a 6-3 decision by Kavanaugh, the court upholds the preventive care mandate under the ACA that required coverage of HIV medication. The courts liberals joined. Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Medicaid changes don't meet Senate rules in 'big, beautiful bill' says parliamentarian
The nonpartisan Senate official whose office determines if legislation fits within the rules of the chamber dealt Senate Republicans a blow on proposed changes to Medicaid.

As Congress debates major cuts in federal spending on Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, our latest poll finds the two programs’ popularity are at or match all-time highs, with 83% and 66% of the public supporting the programs, respectively. 🔗: on.kff.org/3Zywm9K
Line graph from KFF Health Tracking Poll showing increasing favorable opinions of Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) from 2010 to 2025. Medicaid favorability rises from 74% in 2017 to 83% in 2025, and ACA favorability increases from 46% in 2010 to 66% in 2025.

"Facing big HUD cuts, some Baltimore-area housing advocates liken it to apocalypse." Great rundown of potential impacts of cutting HOPWA on our communities. Read more: www.thebaltimorebanner.com/politics-pow...

With HUD cuts in play, Baltimore-area housing advocates are not mincing words
Funding cuts at the federal level threaten to disrupt households across the Baltimore area, housing advocates said Tuesday.

NHAHC Board Members & LLC Interns are on the Hill today to discuss the importance of HOPWA & housing programs with their elected reps. These programs reduce homelessness and help to end the HIV epidemic in our communities. Grateful to have had these productive conversations 🏛️

NHAHC is in ATL for the ribbon-cutting of a new housing complex that will house 18 households, all of them headed by ppl living w/HIV. This is just 1 example of HOPWA in action! Congrats to Status: Home and many thanks to Mayor @andreforatlanta.com for demonstrating community-centered leadership.

The "skinny" budget released last week had alarming proposed changes for HOPWA + other housing programs: ✂ Consolidate HOPWA into the Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) program, making HOPWA a short-term housing program ✂ Cap eligibility for beneficiaries at 2 years ✂ Significantly ⬇️ funding levels

“If you’re homeless, finding food may be the most important endeavor in a single day rather than getting to a doctor’s appointment.” Great to read about @hivma.bsky.social issuing guidance to help providers develop and sustain low-barrier clinics and street medicine: tinyurl.com/ycxs4wsz

The CDC provides over 90% of federal funding for HIV prevention—about $1 billion a year. Eliminating federal funding would lead to over 143,000 additional people in the U.S. acquiring HIV within 5 years and about 127,000 additional deaths related to AIDS, says amfAR. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-e...

Trump once promised to end HIV in America. His deep funding cuts are rolling back progress in the South.
A disruption in federal funds has jeopardized HIV testing and outreach in Mississippi, and researchers warn of a resurgence of the epidemic in the South.

Housing for low-income folks, LGBTQ+ folks, people living with HIV is a necessary pillar of public health and community wellbeing. A robustly-funded HUD that follows civil rights laws and policies is absolutely necessary.

Of the 20 jurisdictions receiving the most federal funds to support housing programs for PLWH: 🏠 4 are in Florida (Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando, Tampa) 🏠 3 are in Texas (Houston, Dallas, TX state) 🏠 2 are in Georgia (Atlanta, GA state) HIV and housing is a bipartisan issue. Support HOPWA.

Congress will decide. But housing aid takes a major hit in the White House budget request. www.npr.org/2025/05/02/n...
npr.org
Trump budget would slash rental aid by 40% -- and let states fill the gap if they want
The proposal would cut off rental subsidies after two years for able-bodied adults. Advocates warn if enacted, the White House plan would tip many low-income renters over the edge into homelessness.

Stats on (lack of) housing and how that increases HIV incidence is also sorely needed.

You are making progress 📈 We began the week with 34 House Reps who publicly committed their support to a robust HOPWA program. Today, we're at 59! Your advocacy is working 💪 If your Rep has not yet committed their support, call + ask them to sign the FY26 HOPWA Support Letter.
