Urge your senators to support the Breast Cancer Education and Awareness act to save lives and detect cancer early!
October 27, 2009
| Hi Bobbi,
An estimated 194,280 new cases of invasive breast cancer will occur in the United States this year — taking the lives of 40,610 people. Although both men and women are at risk of breast cancer, when cancer is found in women under the age of 45, it is more likely to be aggressive and less responsive to therapies. October is national Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so please, take this time to urge your senators to support the Breast Cancer Education and Awareness act to save lives and detect cancer early! » Unfortunately, many women do not learn much about beast health unless they breastfeed or they have a problem that needs medical attention. A new bill introduced in Congress would change this. For the past 30 years new cases of breast cancer have steadily increased and while mortality has decreased, increasing education and addressing these life threatening issues earlier would greatly improve cancer survival rates.

Join this FaceBook group and help support the end to the 45 year old ban on US trade with the state of Cuba and its people. By banning trade with Cuba and its people, the United States only hurts the Cuban people while giving Fidel Castro something to blame for the shortages and poverty that plague the nation of Cuba. We, at End the US Trade Embargo on Cuba, do not support ending the ban on trade with Cuba because we condone the human rights abuses of the Castro regime. Rather, we support an end to the US trade embargo on Cuba to help the Cuban people while, at the same time, providing them with an oppertunity to choose their own government.
