AST President Attends White House Oval Office Signing of HOPE Act

AST President Dr. Dan Salomon was invited to join President Obama this afternoon/Thursday at the White House as he signs S. 330, the HIV Organ Policy Equity (HOPE) Act. Dr. Salomon will attend the very small ceremony in the Oval Office. AST played a very significant role, particularly in the U.S. House of Representatives, to garner key support for final passage of the HOPE Act.

Prior to attending the special Oval Office ceremony at the White House, Dr. Salomon will be on Capitol Hill meeting with one of the HOPE Act’s primary sponsors Congresswoman Lois Capps (CA).
