TAKE A MINUTE TO HELP US MAKE SOME NOISE ON CAPITOL HILL The House of Representatives passed Department of Defense appropriations with $20 million for the Ovarian Cancer Research Program (OCRP). Its time to make sure the Senate follows through and secures the funding we need for vital research. WE NEED YOUR HELP! Below is a list of Senators who sit on the Subcommittee for Defense Appropriations. As they consider this important funding, we need to make sure they understand how very important this funding is to the ovarian cancer community. Please look over this list and if one of these Senators is from your state, call their office in Washington D.C. and tell them that you want to urge the Senator to support the Department of Defense OCRP at $20M for FY2015. It literally will take you no more than 5 minutes but the research funded by this program could save womens lives. Democrats Patrick J.
