Cancer Awareness by Ryan Birss, Sep 10, 2008 (10:56pm)

This bill would ammed the Public Service Act to require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to increase awareness of ovarian and cervical cancer and expand public services targeted at low-income women. This is a good idea because these cancers can impact many women, and low income women might not be as informed about the potential risks. The bill has over 20 cosponsors so it could potentially get some action.
