Hank recognizes World AIDS Day

“On World AIDS Day, I’m proud to announce my co-sponsorship of the Stop AIDS in Prison Act, reintroduced today by Congresswoman Maxine Waters. We need to take the threat of HIV/AIDS seriously and confront it in every institution of our society. That includes our nation’s prison system – and this bill will help stop the spread of HIV/AIDS among prison inmates, encourage them to take personal responsibility for their health, and reduce the risk that they will transmit HIV/AIDS to other people in the community following their release from prison.”
