The coalition wants a change in leadership, more funding and more scientifically based policies. In particular, advocates emphasize the need to support the Affordable Care Act; to maintain Medicare, Medicaid and the Ryan White CARE Act; and to press Congress for more funding for the National HIV/AIDS Strategy.
