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 detected early, the five-year relative survival rate for breast cancer is an impressive 99%.

The resolution also emphasizes the need for increased mammogram screenings, as they have been credited with significantly improving early-stage breast cancer detection. It acknowledges the ongoing efforts of professionals and volunteers who work tirelessly to raise funds and support for those affected by breast cancer. The House of Representatives encourages all Pennsylvanians to educate themselves about breast cancer, take proactive steps to reduce their risks, and participate in appropriate screenings, while also expressing solidarity with individuals battling the disease.
