Independent Report: Beyond Breast Cancer | Breast Cancer Research Bill Pulled

“Funding for breast cancer research is incredibly important to millions of American families. I remain hopeful that this bill will pass, and I’m working right now to make sure that happens,” Maloney said in a statement after the bill was removed from the vote schedule.

Under the bill, the U.S. Treasury would issue $5 pink gold, $1 silver and half-dollar commemorative coins in 2018 recognizing breast cancer research efforts.

Revenue from coin sales that goes beyond recovering the costs of producing the coins would be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation and Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

Maloney said during floor debate that the coins offered a way to increase up to millions of dollars in funding for breast cancer research without spending taxpayer money.

“There is only one thing and one thing only that can possibly save these lives, and that is research,” Maloney said. “Money buys research and research saves lives.”

The design on the coins would be chosen by a public competition judged by an expert panel. Members of the panel would include the Treasury Secretary as well as members of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee and Commission of Fine Arts.
