A little over a week ago, I went with a team of ONE volunteers and ONE staff member Brian Sweeney to meet with Congressman Tim Holden. He was very receptive and graciously listened as we introduce ourselves, talked about our passion for fighting for the world’s poorest people, and talked about ONE’s work in the presidential election. During the meeting, we made sure to thank him for his support of PEPFAR (the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief).

At the end, Congressman Holden signed the ONE Declaration and expressed an interest in becoming a PA ONE Honorary Ambassador. All in all, it was a very encouraging meeting.
