Her attacker is HIV-positive and she sustained cuts during the attack. She’s currently on antiviral medication in the hope that immediate treatment will keep her from contracting a debilitating lifelong illness. Part of the reason she needs to raise so much money is the cost of these medications–antivirals (as opposed to antiretrovirals, which are “you have it and we’re trying to mitigate it) are mostly experimental.

Just as an example to explain how expensive they are, a few years ago I had the flu and was prescribed the antiviral Tamiflu. It cost me $119–AND I HAD INSURANCE. And that’s for a medication for a relatively straightforward viral infection–imagine the cost for preventing HIV. (I know PrEP is well over $1000.)

This remarkable line of questioning from Congresswoman Suzan DelBene demonstrates just a few of the ways that the GOP tax plan treats corporations better than people.

Under the Republican plan, corporations are still allowed to deduct state and local taxes. Workers are not. Corporations are still allowed to deduct business expenses. Teachers are not. Corporations are still allowed to deduct more than $10,000 in property taxes. Homeowners are not. Corporations are still allowed to deduct moving expenses. Families are not.

And this is on top of a $1.5 trillion corporate tax cut.

Let’s be clear, this is not a “middle-class tax cut.” Working families get the crumbs and the super-wealthy get everything else.
