This resolution expresses support for the goals and ideals of National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, observed annually on March 10. It recognizes the significant progress made in responding to the HIV/AIDS epidemic over the past 44 years and recommits the House of Representatives to bipartisan efforts aimed at ending the epidemic in the United States and globally. The resolution calls for a greater focus on the HIV-related vulnerabilities of women and girls , including those at risk of or who have experienced violence or discrimination due to the disease. It advocates for strong, sustained investment in prevention, care, treatment services, and research programs, emphasizing efforts to reduce disparities and improve access to lifesaving medications for women and girls affected by HIV and all individuals diagnosed with HIV. Furthermore, the resolution supports U.S. investment in global efforts to significantly reduce new HIV infections among women and girls through evidence-based, multisectoral approaches. It encourages youth-friendly, culturally responsive, and accessible healthcare services, including access to medications like pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and antiretroviral therapy , and promotes comprehensive, medically accurate HIV education. The resolution also highlights the importance of addressing violence against women and girls, combating discrimination, and ensuring access to a full range of sexual and reproductive health services as key drivers in combating the epidemic.
