Governor Huckabee recently released a statement outlining his plan to fight global HIV/AIDS if elected president. Governor Huckabee committed to supporting President Bush’s $30 billion plan over five years for a second round of the emergency AIDS plan. The Governor also committed to increasing support for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

ONE Vote ‘08 applauds the governor for releasing his plans to fight HIV/AIDS. We look forward to hearing more from the governor about his plans to fight global poverty and disease.

    I applaud Gov. Huckabee’s commitment to fight on behalf of the poor, especially those affected by AIDS, TB and malaria. Having him go on the record about global AIDS and poverty makes me more likely to vote for him.
