The Helms AIDS Amendments were a series of amendments to United States Congressional bills that US Senator Jesse Helms introduced, starting in 1987, that prohibited the use of federal funding for any HIV/AIDS educational materials that would "promote or encourage, directly or indirectly, homosexual activities". Helms introduced the first and best-known of these amendments in 1987 to an AIDS appropriations bill, but also continued to offer the same amendment to subsequent appropriations bills.

The 1987 bill, with the Helms amendment attached, passed the Senate by a 94–2 vote, and the House of Representatives 358–47. President Ronald Reagan was an enthusiastic supporter of the amendment and signed the amended bill into law. (en)
