The vast majority of constituents who have called this Senator have asked. "How can we possibly afford to pay for the care of these people. if we cant even pay for our own?" It is a legitimate and important question. The question is not. nor should not. be limited to persons who are HIVinfected. According to the Congressional Research Service. approximately 200 to 300 persons with HIV seek immigration to the United States each year. But hundreds. if not thousands. of people enter this country. with other expensive illnesses. To the best of my knowledge. we have never tested them for those illnesses. although certainly our medical scientists will tell us that they can calculate such risks.
