Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation for its efforts and commitment to transform the lives for those living with HIV/AIDS. Since its creation in 1991, this foundation has advanced Elizabeth Taylor's dream to create a future free of HIV/AIDS by supporting organizations delivering care and services for people living with this disease. Today, the Foundation remains a leading player in the fight to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic by providing grants to global programs that seek to fund education, to raise awareness, and to create innovative treatments for patients. As the co-chair of the Congressional HIV/AIDS Caucus, I have had the opportunity to work with this foundation over the years to help improve the lives of patients and advance research efforts that can lead to a cure for this terrible disease. I celebrate The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation, and I look forward to continuing to work with it to realize our common dream of an AIDS- free generation in the U.S. and, indeed, throughout the world. ____________________
