Supports the designation of March 3, 2025, as National Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Day.
The bill expresses support for the designation of March 3, 2025, as National Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Day. It highlights that this type of breast cancer disproportionately affects young women, Black and Hispanic women, and those with BRCA gene mutations. Triple-negative breast cancers are distinct from other breast cancers as they lack estrogen, progesterone receptors, and HER2. This form of cancer accounts for 10 to 15 percent of all breast cancer diagnoses and around 25 percent of all breast cancer deaths in the United States.
