HOUSE AND SENATE APPROPRIATIONS The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners contacted House and Senate offices about increasing federal funding for the following: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Programs, National Environmental Public Health Tracking Network Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Programs, Environmental Health Labs Biomonitoring Program National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners contacted Senate offices about preserving the current Design for the Environment program in the EPA. CURRENT LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS: The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners supports H.R. 2728, the Cleaning Product Labeling Act of 2017, which would require the disclosure of ingredients in cleaning products. The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners supports reform and strengthening of the personal care products regulatory system, and is working to ensure strong, health protective measures are included in legislation such as S.1113, the Personal Care Products Safety Act, and any other legislation that would impact the safety of personal care products including H.R. 6903, the Safe Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Act of 2018. Breast Cancer Prevention Partners opposes the Accurate Labels Act (S.3019, H.R.6022) because it undermines transparency for consumers and undermines states' ability to protect the public health of their citizens by preempting science-based ingredient labeling for consumer goods. FUTURE LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS: The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners visits Senate offices to support an amendment to the Senate NDAA that directs the Secretary of Defense, in carrying out research, development, test, and evaluation activities with respect to breast cancer, to implement the recommendations of the Interagency Breast Cancer and Environmental Research Coordinating Committee to prioritize prevention and increase the study of chemical and physical factors in breast cancer (IBCERCC). The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners supports ongoing efforts to reintroduce legislation that would compel manufacturers to provide complete and accurate product labeling of chemicals used in consumer products. Such labeling is a critical step in removing carcinogenic, and otherwise hazardous, materials from consumer products. The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners supports ongoing efforts to reintroduce legislation in the House that would mandate the testing of chemicals for their health risks- including potentially hazardous, cancer-causing chemicals currently being used in a variety of consumer products. The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners supports actions to ensure appropriate definition and regulation of chemicals Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS). REGULATION AND LEGISLATIVE INTENT: FDA Advocacy In addition to meeting with Congressional staff on the matter of bisphenol-A (BPA), the Breast Cancer Prevention Partners has also met with members of the FDA management team concerning the FDAs ongoing cosmetics regulation negotiations and the FDAs transparency policies more generally. P.L. 110-314 - The Consumer Product Safety Commission Improvement Act The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners lobbied in support of the provision that bans the use of phthalates in the manufacture of childrens toys. We are now monitoring implementation of this law; working on preserving the law's phthalates provision through the legislative and regulatory process; and urging expeditious research and regulatory action as required by the legislation. P.L. 114-182 - The Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners is working to support and encourage strong, health-protective implementation of the recently- enacted reform of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA).

HOUSE AND SENATE APPROPRIATIONS The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners contacted House and Senate offices about increasing federal funding for the following: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Programs, National Environmental Public Health Tracking Network Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Programs, Environmental Health Labs Biomonitoring Program National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners contacted Senate offices about preserving the current Design for the Environment program in the EPA. CURRENT LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS: The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners supports H.R. 2728, the Cleaning Product Labeling Act of 2017, which would require the disclosure of ingredients in cleaning products. The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners supports reform and strengthening of the personal care products regulatory system, and is working to ensure strong, health protective measures are included in legislation such as S.1113, the Personal Care Products Safety Act, and any other legislation that would impact the safety of personal care products including H.R. 6903, the Safe Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Act of 2018. Breast Cancer Prevention Partners opposes the Accurate Labels Act (S.3019, H.R.6022) because it undermines transparency for consumers and undermines states' ability to protect the public health of their citizens by preempting science-based ingredient labeling for consumer goods. FUTURE LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS: The Breast Cancer Prevention Partners visits Senate offices to support an amendment to the Senate NDAA that directs the Secretary of Defense, in carrying out research, development, test, and evaluation activities with respect to breast cancer, to implement the recommendations of the Interagency Breast Cancer and Environmental Research Coordinating Committee to prioritize prevention and increase the study of chemical and physical factors in breast cancer (IBCERCC).
