Breast cancer has always been political. Let’s make sure everyone gets out to #VoteTomorrow because every vote is an important part of the effort to protect life-saving health coverage for millions. #ProtectOurCare #HealthCareTheVote bit.ly/2D4y610

Read this op-ed by our executive director, @karunajaggar, in @commondreams about this year's #ThinkBeforeYouPink campaign. "Truth be told, @Ford’s #WarriorsInPink program is just another example of “#pinkwashing.” bit.ly/2JfjVHu

What we're reading today about women with breast cancer opting out of tamoxifen is nothing new. Activists have been very clear about the side effects of this drug and lack of attention to them by medical professionals for decades #ESMO18

Hey @Ford & #WarriorsInPink! Your cars & trucks are fueling #breastcancer risk! We can see right through your pink-tinted smoke screen to the truth. It’s time to make the shift to a zero emission fleet! #PutTheBrakesOn: bit.ly/2NVoDj4

Hey, @Ford Motor Company & @WarriorsinPink! You ask “what more can we do?” Here’s an idea. If you really want to show you care about #BreastCancer, stop making vehicles that produce cancer-causing exhaust! #PutTheBrakesOn
Help keep the pressure on #Ford: bit.ly/2NVoDj4

Scientists have known for decades that the chemicals in auto exhaust cause #breastcancer. That’s why we're calling out @Ford’s #WarriorsInPink for their hypocrisy. If #Ford really cared they’d stop making vehicles w/cancer-causing exhaust. bit.ly/2NVoDj4 #WednesdayWisdom

.@BCAction's first ED, the one-and-only Barbara Brenner, was born in October—30+ yrs before it became known as #BreastCancer Industry (Awareness) Month. She transformed how we talk about breast cancer & under her leadership we launched #ThinkBeforeYouPink. bit.ly/2y6s7pO
