Part D was already cut just two years ago; now we're being ELIMINATED?!?!



The President's budget states that eliminating Part D and consolidating it into Part C will save $4 million dollars.

They neglect to mention that just two years ago, the Part D program was already drastically cut!

It went from 700 sites in 44 states, the District of Columbia, and two territories in 2012 to its current list of sites (fewer sites AND less funding)!

And yet they want to consolidate even further, when Part D has not recovered from the cuts that occurred in the 2013 Fiscal Year!

Our women, infants, teens, children, and families deserve better than this! We MUST #SaveRyanWhitePartD!!

Read more about the Fiscal year 2013 funding cuts that Part D already suffered in this fact sheet from the AIDS Alliance:
