President Obama: Act now on cancer-causing chemicals

"In a groundbreaking report released in May of 2010, the President's Cancer Panel provided strong confirmation that exposure to toxic chemicals is an important and under-recognized risk factor for cancer, and recommended that the government take immediate action to reverse this trend.

Acknowledging the devastating toll that a cancer diagnosis takes on an individual and a family, the report urges policymakers to shift their focus to reducing environmental cancer risk and enacting stronger chemical regulations.

Don't allow the Obama Administration to ignore this call to act by scientists, physicians, and public health experts. Sign the petition asking President Obama to confront the cancer plague on this nation and make cancer prevention a priority."
