Breast Cancer Research Stamp Reauthorization

In 1998, Susan G. Komen for the Cure® helped secure passage of legislations establishing the Breast Cancer Research Stamp. The stamp, available through the U.S. Postal Service, raised awareness on breast cancer and has raised millions of dollars for vital breast cancer research. Congress must pass legislation by the end of the year to renew the stamp and ensure that it remains available. To date, the Breast Cancer Research Stamp has generated $74 million towards breast cancer research.
