    Pennsylvania poised to strike down its last law criminalizing HIV

    Pennsylvania is set to eliminate criminal charges targeting people living with HIV after Gov. Josh Shapiro is expected to sign the bill.

The bill also increases penalties for human traffickers and funds preventative grants.
