Congress is deciding how to spend our tax dollars – the decisions could be made this week – and the House of Representatives is still considering a cut of $100,000,000 to cancer research funding.
C3 is a member of the [One Voice Against Cancer (OVAC)](http://www.ovaconline.org) coalition. OVAC has professionals in DC telling our Representatives that cancer matters at home. We must reinforce that message if we want our Representatives to listen.
C3 has set up an action alert in our [One Minute Advocate](http://www.kintera.org/siteapps/advocacy/index.aspx?c=cgKJLROyEpH&b=437949) so you can log in and send a fax to your elected representative – it’s automated and it’s free. All you need to do is enter your name and address (because Representatives ignore communications unless they come from constituents) – the system does the rest.
**Do it today.**
