Breast Cancer Research Stamp

Since its introduction, the Breast Cancer Research Stamp has raised more than $55 million for breast cancer research putting it among the most successful commemorative stamps of all time.

Congress has passed legislation extending the Breast Cancer Research Stamp four more years, through 2011. The House of Representatives passed the bill on Tuesday, and the Senate followed the next night. The bill now awaits signature by President Bush.

Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) and Representative William Lacy Clay (D-MO) spearheaded the effort extend the life of the Breast Cancer Research Stamp. Take a moment to say thank you to these CHAMPIONS!

Elizabeth Edwards

Yesterday we learned that Elizabeth's breast cancer has returned in bone. The cancer is treatable, but not curable. In the press conference she said she expected to live next week as she lived last week. Her husband, Senator John Edwards, will continue to campaign for President. Those are great examples of their positive outlook. That is so important when facing a cancer diagnosis!
