“I want this bill to pass. It will spend taxpayer money on education and outreach. The government will train providers through the Department of Health and Human Services and the CDC. Breast cancer is a big problem. This bill will try to fix it. We need to keep spending money on this.”
“I want this bill to pass. It helps detect breast cancer early. Early detection is good. My mom and sister had breast cancer. It's personal to me. This bill spends money on education and detection. It's bipartisan. I want more Americans to have access to early detection. I want taxpayers to spend on it.”
“I want to cheer for my colleague. His mom and sister had breast cancer. His brother did too. His brother used to work here. I miss his brother. I want to say something nice about his family. I don't have much else to say.”
