AI Summary
This bill, the Repeal Existing Policies that Encourage and Allow Legal HIV Discrimination Act of 2021 (also known as the REPEAL HIV Discrimination Act of 2021), aims to modernize laws and policies and eliminate discrimination against people living with HIV/AIDS. The bill requires a review of federal and state laws, policies, regulations, and judicial precedents related to criminal and civil commitment cases involving people living with HIV/AIDS, including in the military. The review will assess whether these laws and policies place unique or additional burdens on people living with HIV, demonstrate a public health-oriented and evidence-based understanding of HIV transmission and treatment, and have a disproportionate impact on public health and affected communities. The bill also directs the development of best practice recommendations and updated guidance for states, as well as the modernization of federal laws, policies, and regulations, including the Uniform Code of Military Justice, to ensure they align with the principles of the bill.
