PLEASE READ, CLICK & SIGN THE PETITIONS!

The Bipartisan Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act Needs Your Support!On September 25, 2008, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the bipartisan Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act, which would end the practice of "drive-through" mastectomies, when women are forced to leave the hospital within hours of undergoing major breast cancer surgery. But the act still needs your support! Sign the petition below now and urge the Senate and the president to take the next steps to pass this bill.

Will Our Political Leaders Help End Breast Cancer Forever?
America's next political leaders can save lives—but only if you ask. By taking a moment to sign the I Vote for the Cure petition, which outlines three critical goals in the fight to end breast cancer, you can let our next political leaders know that you expect them to make breast cancer a national priority—in their platforms and for our country.
One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. Women are dying every day, when common-sense policies could ensure that every woman in America has access to high-quality breast health care. Take this easy step to make sure our next political leaders hear from as many Americans as possible: we want a plan to end breast cancer forever!
