THE ILLINOIS HOUSE IS VOTING TO DECRIMINALIZE H-I-V.

CURRENTLY, IT'S A CRIME TO KNOWINGLY TRANSMIT H-I-V OR NOT DISCLOSE H-I-V STATUS BEFORE ENGAGING WITH A SEXUAL PARTNER. BUT REPRESENTATIVE CAROL AMMONS OF URBANA SAYS THE LAW REFLECTS PAST THINKING ABOUT THE VIRUS AND NEEDS TO BE CHANGED.

SHE'S SPONSORING LEGISLATION CHANGING THAT.

THE BILL PASSED ON A 90 TO NINE VOTE AND STILL NEEDS SENATE APPROVAL.
