The national week of action is set for June 1–7, 2026. Local groups such as The Strilite Foundation and advocates will organize and participate in town halls, panel discussions, forums, demonstrations, marches, rallies, candlelight vigils, inter-faith services, AIDS Memorial Quilt displays and social media campaigns in rural towns and urban neighborhoods nationwide.
Medical research, affordable access to healthcare, vaccines, and treatment, and strong public health systems are fundamental to quality of life, economic stability, workforce strength and national security.
Budget cuts to Medicaid, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are threats to the health of all Americans.
The cuts passed by Congress last year will not go into effect until after this fall’s election, when they will also cause harm local economies and the loss of more than one million jobs and billions in tax revenue.
