EVENT: Thurs., Jan. 29---AIDS LOBBY DAY

A coalition of AIDS service providers and advocates gathers Thursday to call for maintained HIV/AIDS funding in fiscal years 2009 and 2010. Project ABLE (AIDS Budget Legislative Effort) will be lobbying lawmakers to restore HIV/AIDS funding that was cut $1.5 million in the fiscal 2009 budget and to include a $500,000 initiative in the fiscal 2010 budget to reduce the "explosive HIV/AIDS epidemic" among gay and bisexual men.
