Legislation in the 111th H.R. 1523, the Ban Poisonous Additives Act of 2009 (Senate version S. 593) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation because bisphenol-A has been linked to increased rates of cancer, as well as other significant health problems. The Breast Cancer Fund has been meeting with staff from various offices to encourage co-sponsorship and eventual passage of this bill. Continued: Legislation in the 111th H.R. 2751, FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (Senate version S. 510) The Breast Cancer Fund supported efforts to pass this legislation because of a possible amendment to ban bisphenol-A, a chemical linked to increased rates of cancer, as well as other significant health problems, from certain food contact materials. The Breast Cancer Fund met with staff from various offices to encourage support for this language and eventual passage of the bill. House and Senate Appropriations The Breast Cancer Fund has been speaking with House and Senate offices about increasing federal funding for state biomonitoring programs through the CDC grants program as well as support for health tracking and NIEHS programs related to breast cancer research. H.R. 3057 Household Product Labeling Act of 2009 (Senate version S. 1697) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation because complete and accurate product labeling of chemicals used in consumer products is a critical step in removing carcinogenic, and otherwise hazardous, materials from consumer products. H.R. 4190 Endocrine Disruption Prevention Act of 2009(Senate version S. 2828) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation as it will increase the coordination and resources dedicated to research on endocrine disrupting substances, an important link to increased risk of lifetime incidence of breast cancer. H.R. 5820 The Safe Chemicals Act of 2010 (Senate version 3209) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation because it 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. H.R. 5786 Safe Cosmetics Act of 2010 (Senate version not yet introduced) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation to reform the FDAs regulation of cosmetic ingredients based on mounting evidence that several ingredients of common cosmetic products have been linked to negative environmental health impacts, including breast cancer. Future Legislative Proposals: The Breast Cancer Fund continues to meet with staff from various Senate offices to draft legislation to reform the FDAs regulation of cosmetic ingredients based on mounting evidence that several ingredients of common cosmetic products have been linked to negative environmental health impacts, including breast cancer. Regulation and Legislative Intent: FDA Advocacy In addition to meeting with Congressional staff on the matter of bisphenol-A (BPA), The Breast Cancer Fund has also met with Deputy Commissioner Josh Sharfstein and additional members of the FDA management team concerning the FDAs ongoing review of BPA, upcoming cosmetics legislation, and the FDAs transparency policies more generally. Presidents Cancer Panel Report The Breast Cancer Fund provided educational briefings to staff within the Executive Office of the President and the Office of Science and Technology Policy regarding the report and recommendations of the Presidents Cancer Panel. P.L. 110-314 The Consumer Product Safety Commission Improvement Act This law has broadly reformed and modernized the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The Breast Cancer Fund lobbied in support of a Feinstein amendment in the Senate and in conference negotiations which inserts phthalates as a banned substance in the manufacture of childrens toys. We are now monitoring implementation of this law: calling on the Executive Branch to nominate a new Chair for the agency and submitting public comments on various stages of implementation. P.L. 110-354 -- Breast Cancer and Environmental Research Act of 2008 This law authorizes the Director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences to make grants for the development and operation of research centers regarding environmental factors that may be related to the etiology of breast cancer. The Breast Cancer Fund was not actively involved in passage of the bill apart from coalition support but has since met with authors to discuss implementation and the appointment process to the community panel that will oversee the grant process.

Legislation in the 111th H.R. 1523, the Ban Poisonous Additives Act of 2009 (Senate version S. 593) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation because bisphenol-A has been linked to increased rates of cancer, as well as other significant health problems. The Breast Cancer Fund has been meeting with staff from various offices to encourage co-sponsorship and eventual passage of this bill. Continued: Legislation in the 111th House and Senate Appropriations The Breast Cancer Fund has been speaking with House and Senate offices about increasing federal funding for state biomonitoring programs through the CDC grants program as well as support for health tracking and NIEHS programs related to breast cancer research. H.R. 3057 Household Product Labeling Act of 2009 (Senate version S. 1697) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation because complete and accurate product labeling of chemicals used in consumer products is a critical step in removing carcinogenic, and otherwise hazardous, materials from consumer products. H.R. 4190 Endocrine Disruption Prevention Act of 2009(Senate version S. 2828) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation as it will increase the coordination and resources dedicated to research on endocrine disrupting substances, an important link to increased risk of lifetime incidence of breast cancer. H.R. 5820 The Safe Chemicals Act of 2010 (Senate version 3209) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation because it 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. H.R. 5786 Safe Cosmetics Act of 2010 (Senate version not yet introduced) The Breast Cancer Fund supports this legislation to reform the FDAs regulation of cosmetic ingredients based on mounting evidence that several ingredients of common cosmetic products have been linked to negative environmental health impacts, including breast cancer. Future Legislative Proposals: The Breast Cancer Fund continues to meet with staff from various Senate offices to draft legislation to reform the FDAs regulation of cosmetic ingredients based on mounting evidence that several ingredients of common cosmetic products have been linked to negative environmental health impacts, including breast cancer. Regulation and Legislative Intent: FDA Advocacy In addition to meeting with Congressional staff on the matter of bisphenol-A (BPA), The Breast Cancer Fund has also met with Deputy Commissioner Josh Sharfstein and additional members of the FDA management team concerning the FDAs ongoing review of BPA, upcoming cosmetics legislation, and the FDAs transparency policies more generally. Presidents Cancer Panel Report The Breast Cancer Fund provided educational briefings to staff within the Executive Office of the President and the Office of Science and Technology Policy regarding the report and recommendations of the Presidents Cancer Panel. P.L. 110-314 The Consumer Product Safety Commission Improvement Act This law has broadly reformed and modernized the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The Breast Cancer Fund lobbied in support of a Feinstein amendment in the Senate and in conference negotiations which inserts phthalates as a banned substance in the manufacture of childrens toys. We are now monitoring implementation of this law: calling on the Executive Branch to nominate a new Chair for the agency and submitting public comments on various stages of implementation. P.L. 110-354 -- Breast Cancer and Environmental Research Act of 2008 This law authorizes the Director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences to make grants for the development and operation of research centers regarding environmental factors that may be related to the etiology of breast cancer. The Breast Cancer Fund was not actively involved in passage of the bill apart from coalition support but has since met with authors to discuss implementation and the appointment process to the community panel that will oversee the grant process.
