## Summary

**A comprehensive U.S. policy framework to accelerate the domestic and global response to HIV/AIDS.** This resolution would also mark World AIDS Day and lay out 13 policy directives for prevention, care, equity, and international partnerships. - People living with HIV and families: Would emphasize access to care through programs the resolution cites, including the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, which serves over half of people diagnosed in the U.S. It highlights prevention tools such as PrEP, used by about 3.9 million people globally. - Communities at higher risk: Would call out disparities affecting young Black and Hispanic men who have sex with men, transgender people, people over 50 living with HIV, and people who inject drugs in nonurban areas. - International partners and global programs: Would reaffirm support for the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and the Global Fund, noting PEPFAR treats about 20.6 million people and the Global Fund has supported roughly 25.6 million people on antiretroviral therapy.
