guaranteed insurance coverage for mammograms and other cancer screenings is an
important issue to you, your family and the cancer community. Tell them to oppose
S.1955.

Dear Senator,

The U.S. Senate is about to vote on S. 1955, which would gut laws in 49 states that
require health insurance to cover mammograms and other important cancer
screenings.

I am deeply concerned that S. 1955 will undermine important patient protections
and hamper efforts to prevent, detect and treat cancer. Early detection of cancer is
the key to saving lives, especially with the use of mammograms to detect breast
cancer. By allowing insurance plans to be exempt from covering cancer screenings,
access to mammograms, colorectal cancer screenings, pap smears, along with
insurance coverage of off-label prescription drugs and participation in clinical trials
would be in jeopardy.

Please stand with me and the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network and
oppose S. 1955 and any other legislation that will not protect insurance coverage for
mammograms and other vital cancer screenings.

Sincerely,
