A Conversation With Senator Brian Schatz

Published | Video Starts at 04:38

The Senator has lots to cover, as do I. But first, I want to invite Senator Schatz up here. He's going to deliver some opening remarks, and then we'll get started. Because of this administration's indiscriminate cuts to HIV testing and treatment, thousands of children have already died. and an estimated half a million more could die in the next five years. 2030 was our goal to end the HIV AIDS pandemic. But we're now moving backwards, with more, not fewer, people dying. (04:38–04:46)
