National Breast Cancer Coalition Health care reform is NBCC’s #1 legislative priority. Just over a week ago, NBCC brought our message of health care reform to the White House (http://takeaction.stopbreastcancer.org/whitehouse). Now, we need YOU to bring the message to Congress. The House bill will be introduced this week. Call your Representative at 202/224-3121 and tell him/her: “Vote YES on health care reform.”
