Abstract:

HIV/AIDS is a critical issue to many who may have questions for candidates concerning their positions on the U.S. response to the epidemic at home and abroad.  The U.S. is faced with numerous challenges in addressing the epidemic, including: funding levels for global and domestic HIV/AIDS efforts; differing approaches to prevention, care, treatment, and research; and questions about the role of the U.S. as a leader in the global fight against the epidemic.
