United StatesSenate measure would set breast health program years through 2031
Young women’s federal breast health education and awareness program would have 2027 through 2031 listed in its law provision.
What it does
The measure would list 2027 through 2031 for a federal breast health education and awareness program for young women. The text does not specify how much money, if any, the program would receive.
Argument forNaming years through 2031 could help young women continue to receive breast health education and awareness during that period.
Argument againstNaming a final year of 2031 could leave the program’s support after that year uncertain for young women who rely on its education.
