Support breast cancer awareness

Support breast cancer awareness

The Issue

Certainly, you know that, breast cancer in women under 40 is often not detected until it is in its later stages, by which time it is more aggressive and less responsive to hormone therapies.  Despite these facts, there is a lack of awareness about the risks of breast cancer for young women and the unique challenges facing young women with the disease.  One bill, the Breast Cancer EARLY Act, Education and Awareness Requires Learning Young, has been introduced in the Senate, SR 994, and the House, HR 1740, to deal with this severe problem.  Please, support the Breast Cancer EARLY Act, now.
