A handful of Biden administration political appointees previously worked for prominent progressive advocacy groups including Planned Parenthood and touted work on "woke" issues such as "health equity" and "queer liberation," according to documents shared exclusively with Fox News Digital. 

Resumes of current Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) officials were obtained by America First Legal through the Freedom of Information Act. The individuals all were nominated and served time on the Biden administration's Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS (PACHA). They were sworn into their positions by transgender Assistant Secretary for Health Dr. Rachel Levine in August 2021. 

The PACHA advises the federal government on how to counter the spread of HIV and largely consists of scientists, professors, and researchers at prominent universities, nonprofits and biomedical companies.
