HIV+ To HIV+ Organ Transplant Bill Gets Through First Committee
Bridgette P. LaVictoire

The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee passed with bipartisan support the HIV Organ Policy Equity (HOPE) Act. Senator Tammy Baldwin, who is a cosponsor of the bill, praised the vote and her colleagues. Baldwin was joined in supporting the bill by Senators Barbara Boxer (D-CA), Tom Coburn (R-OK) and Rand Paul (R-KY).
