of 1990 were:

c) Aggressive fund raising, naming the bill after an adolescent who contracted AIDS, and hiring full
time lobbyists.
d) Including a broad spectrum of groups in the coalition, developing support for the bill from both
parties, and framing the issue as one affecting all people, not just some segments of the
population.
