More than 150 health professional organizations, states, unions, and Insurance commissioners see what is REALLY written in that bill.

2. What other cancer screenings are at risk?
Insurance coverage for the following cancer screenings and treatments could be eliminated under S. 1955:

- Mammograms - Colonoscopy
- Pap smear - Clinical trials
- Off-label drug use - Prostate cancer screenings
- And more


Don't let the corrupt Congress aristocrats steal these basic life-saving measures from us. They have the best health care money can buy - for life. Why do they want to make it harder for us to receive health care?
