NETWORKhttp://www.commandtrust.org/ IN-THE-KNOWhttp://www.intheknow.org/mainletter.shtml MESSAGE FROM THE HUMAN ADJUVANT DISEASE CORP.FDA SCIENTIFIC FAIRNESS FOR WOMEN ACT (HR 6235)The FDA Scientific Fairness for Women Act (HR 6235)will elevate the authority of the Office of Women'sHealth in the FDA. This bill directs the FDA to reviewand evaluate scientific data on the use of emergencycontraception by females under 18 and to ensure thatdecisions about silicone gel breast implants will bemade with an understanding of the scientific questionsregarding the safety of these products.HR 6235 would require the FDA to define the life ofsilicone breast implants and require safety to bedemonstrated for the life of the device prior toapproval. It will also hold the FDA accountable forits actions if silicone breast implants are approved. It would be mandatory for the FDA to list

potentialmembers of the FDA’s breast implant advisorycommittees before the meeting and not allow anyexemptions for financial conflicts of interest. Thislegislation would also require that the FDA oversee apanel of independent scientists to design and conducta study on platinum and platinum salts in the bodiesand breast milk of women with silicone breastimplants.Women exposed to silicone breast implants haveplatinum levels that exceed that of the generalpopulation. In the human body implants are exposed tostress and heat, which can cause deterioration andoxidation. The oxidation states of the platinumindicate that the exposure may be toxic. Platinumspecies remain in the body for a long time afterimplants are removed. Platinum salts have beenassociated with carcinogenicity and neurotoxicity.HR 6235 was introduced by Rep. Rose DeLauro (D-CT) andeleven cosponsors including Maurice

Hinchey (NY), Conyers (MI), Sheila -Lee (TX), (CA), Hilda Solis (CA), Jim McDermott (WA), (CA), Fortney 'Pete' Stark (CA), Moran (VA), Grijalva (AZ), and Lois Capps (CA) Ask your Member of Congress to sponsor the FDA Scientific Fairness for Women http://capwiz.com/commandtrust/issues/alert/?alertid=9061756 & type=COThank you for your time and effort in supporting ourcause to inform others about the complicationsassociated with silicone implants.
