Moving Beyond the U.S. Government Policy of Inadmissibility of HIV-Infected Noncitizens

This paper provides a brief overview of U.S. law and policy concerning inadmissibility of HIV-infected applicants for immigrant and nonimmigrant visas. It lays out a menu of concrete options that might be pursued, both in the short term by the administration in its proposed rulemaking for HIV-infected visitors, and in the longer term by the U.S. Congress as it weighs future legislative action to address HIV inadmissibility more broadly.
