Ryan White Act expires (program to help with HIV medicines).

[William769]

The Ryan White Act expired at Midnight this morning. Has not been reauthorized & many people who depend on this program for their HIV medicine will be left out in the cold. :cry:

[libnnc]

5. kick nominated

Damn! :nuke:

[Lindsay]

6. I am now convinced that they want "useless eaters" to die,

and for the rest of us to suffer and serve those in power.

[Rainscents]

7. I'm sad too.

Rightwingers wants people dead so they don't have to support them.

[MuseRider]

8. I knew they would do this,

let it expire. I am so sorry to hear this. That was the program I was going to get my brothers meds from because he would not have been able to afford them otherwise. This will leave so many out there to sicken and die. Every time I think that I can not be more disgusted something happens to make me more disgusted.

Next item to work on, HIV drug programs.

[TruePatriate]

9. Sorry To Hear.

I hope it chages soon.

[donheld]

10. Is this part of the "pro-life" agenda?

[bonito]

11. And we borrow from other countries to fight an unjustifiable

war to kill, but not for the welfare of our citizens. TREASON

[Nothing Without Hope]

12. Thank you for this, I didn't know. Please repost with a specific title

so that those who don't realize this is about aid for HIV medications will get another chance to see it. This needs to be media-blasted and publicized.

[liberalla]

19. I agree about reposting with a new title ...

I wonder what Ryan White's parents and family think of this.

An interview with them may generate some news coverage.

[flygal]

13. Ah, compassionate conservatism

a family of repugs I know are having a benefit for one of them to help pay for cancer drugs. Now why is that alright, but universal health care isn't.

[Greyhound]

14. K & R

[bonito]

15. I hope this helps someone

16. I don't know about anyone else, but I

just wrote to my Congressman. He is one of the really good guys. This is one more example of the obscenity of the current administration. Thanks for bringing this up.

18. every day is a sad day in America since this monster took over

kicked and nominated, but it already had more than enough I expect
