December 30, 2017 - from Dr. David Kilmnick, President/CEO of the LGBT Network - "The firing today of all the remaining members on the White House HIV/AIDS Council is another outlandish and despicable move by the Trump administration in his year-long effort to erase the LGBT community and the issues that disproportionately affect us" said Dr. David Kilmnick, President/CEO of the LGBT Network. "From ending protections against bullying for trans youth in our schools to his attempt to ban the transgender community from the military to no mention of Gay Pride month during June to leaving out the LGBT community on World AIDS Day to banning words such as transgender, diversity and others, this President has been nothing but a complete train wreck that is a danger to the safety and lives of all Americans. We have finally made significant progress in trying to end the epidemic once and for all and the irrational and immature moves by Trump will only set us back".
