Support the 21st Century Cancer ALERT Act

Hi,

Next Thursday, hundreds of breast cancer survivors, activists, and volunteers will head to in Washington, D.C. to meet with Congress as part of Komen's Lobby Day.

They'll be pounding the pavement on Capitol Hill, urging our leaders to support the 21st Century Cancer ALERT Act - a bill that promises to reignite America's war on cancer by strengthening cancer research, emphasizing early detection, and improving cancer care for underserved populations.

I took action to support their efforts by signing a petition in support of the bill. Will you join me?

We have made momentous strides and seen life-saving advances in the fight against cancer. Yet, each year, cancer still costs the U.S. more than $219 billion and claims more than 565,000 lives. We must reverse this tide.

With your support, we can make sure when Komen advocates meet with Congress on Thursday, it's clear that there is strong grassroots support behind this bill.

Sign the Komen Advocacy Alliance petition and help reignite America's war on cancer: http://komenpolicy.org/campaign/cancer_alert_act

Thanks for your support!
