On July 24, 2008, the House passed H.R. 5501, which includes a provision that would repeal the HIV travel/immigration ban by amending the current health-related ground of inadmissibility to exclude any reference to HIV. The Senate passed the same bill a week earlier. The bill has now been signed by the President. This is a long overdue action and we applaud Congress and the President for taking action to remove this stain on our country's sense of fairness.
