PLEASE TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY (AND FORWARD THIS TO ALL YOUR CONTACTS):
SB 173 re: Breast Cancer Detection/Dense Breast Tissue still is stuck in the Assembly Appropriations Committee, despite bipartisan 34-5 vote in Senate and unanimous votes in Assembly Business & Professions and Health Committees. Our only hope before 9/9 deadline is help from Assembly Speaker John Perez. Call his office at 916-319-2046 or email through his web site at http://asmdc.org/speaker/
Sample email (Please feel free to copy & paste):
Dr. Mr. Perez,
As a concerned California consitutuent, I strongly urge you to support Senator Joe Simitian's SB173, the breast density inform bill. SB173 will give women with dense breast tissue the information they need to make informed decisions about their own health, and ensure access to the EARLY detection of breast cancer. This bill has overwhelming bi-partisan support in both the Senate & Assembly, as well as massive support from California constituents. Please help save lives by supporting SB173 today!
