The House Resolution recognizes October 2025 as "Breast Cancer Awareness Month" and designates October 17, 2025, as "National Mammography Day" in Pennsylvania. This initiative aims to raise public awareness about breast cancer, which is one of the most prevalent cancers globally and the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women in the United States, following skin cancer. The resolution highlights the importance of early detection through clinical breast examinations, regular mammograms, and self-examinations, noting that when breast cancer is detected in its earliest stages, the five-year relative survival rate is an impressive 99%.

The resolution also emphasizes the need for increased mammogram screenings, as they have been credited with significantly improving early detection rates. It acknowledges the ongoing efforts of professionals and volunteers who work tirelessly to combat breast cancer, raise funds, and provide support to those affected. The House of Representatives encourages all Pennsylvanians to take this opportunity to educate themselves about breast cancer, engage in preventative measures, and show solidarity with individuals battling the disease.
