3 - We all deserve “a place in this world” & that means getting screened when you need it.
4 - That feeling when you’re “out of the woods” because you received the breast cancer care you needed & deserved.

No one should have to choose between basic necessities—like food, rent, or gas—and a lifesaving screening. Too many women need additional screening beyond a mammogram but cannot afford the high out-of-pocket costs. They often have to make this painful decision. We can—and we must—do better. Join us.

We need ALL hands on deck to pass H.B. 271. Insurance companies are fighting against this life-saving measure. Please call and write each lawmaker on the Insurance Committee and ask them to vote yes on H.B. 271. A vote for H.B. 271 is a vote for our humanity and decency.
