TOBACCO CONTROL
As president, will you work with Congress to enact legislation (specifically, S. 625/H.R. 1108) to rein in the most egregious manufacturing and marketing practices of the tobacco industry, and will you substantially increase the federal tobacco tax to help improve public health, save lives, and protect children from a lifetime of smoking?

CANCER RESEARCH
In real dollars, federal funding for the National Cancer Institute and the Center for Disease Control have been cut dramatically over the past five years.

PREVENTION
As president, will you pledge to support full funding for the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) and related treatment programs, and support H.R. 1738, the proposed Colorectal Cancer Early Detection Prevention and Treatment program (CCΩEDPTP), both of which utilize screening tools that are known conclusively to save lives and ensure that more Americans, especially the medically underserved, have greater access to cancer prevention, early detection and treatment?
