A federal judge has blocked Idaho from enforcing new rules that would have limited access to HIV treatment based on immigration status.
The case, Davids v. Adams, puts a hold on part of House Bill 135, meaning qualified Idahoans can still get care through the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, no matter their immigration status.
Doctors and advocates are calling it a major win for public health and immigrant communities.
Paul Southwick, legal director with the ACLU of Idaho, joined Idaho Matters to talk more about this.
