21. Here's her voting record on breast cancer issues
Edited on Sat Oct-06-07 03:12 PM by OzarkDem
110th Congress
She supported funding for the DoD Breast Cancer Research Program & Breast Cancer & Environmental Research Act (BCERA)

109th Congress - 100% score on NBCC Legislative Agenda

NBCC hasn't taken a position yet on a specific health care reform plan, so there's no way to judge her on that one.

In the 107th Congress, she did not support the Patients Bill of Rights Act, but did support funding for research, including BCERA, genetic information privacy and access to cancer therapies act.

On edit:

In the 108th Congress, she had a fairly good record on everything from breast cancer research funding, BCERA and Access to Cancer Therapies Act - a bill that would have provided Medicare coverage for all cancer therapies - not just inpatient care. It was later hijacked and warped into Medicare Part D.
