Guest guest Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 For those of you in the United States: Ladies and Gentlemen, Here is the quick way to raise $80 million for prostate cancer research. No letters=no funding so please take a moment to follow this link: http://tinyurl.com/yjz3zxz We Need Your Help NOW to Increase Prostate Cancer Research Funding Take Action NOW to Increase Research Funding http://tinyurl.com/yjz3zxz WRITE YOUR U.S. REPRESENTATIVE TODAY! Representatives Jim Marshall (GA) and King (NY) are currently circulating a letter to colleagues in Washington asking for their support for increased funding for the Prostate Cancer Research Program - part of the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program at the Department of Defense. The program's funding has been stagnant at around $80 million for 9 years. Because of the extended leveling of the program, grants to continue research into clinical trials has slowed to a halt and unless Congress acts to increase funding for the PCRP, important research will be forced to remain in the lab instead of moving forward to potentially help patients fight their prostate cancer. Please write your Representative today and ask that he/she agree to sign the Marshall-King Dear Colleague. The deadline to sign the letter is March 5, 2010. Another alert for the Senate will follow in the next couple of weeks. Please forward this email to your friends, family and co-workers. Time is of the essence and these letters are the difference between support for prostate cancer research and potential cuts. --Skip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
