the only thing that we have is the breast and cervical screening program at CDC, which the women of Congress initiated.

But, Doctor, isn't that true of any clinical trial? Some get the treatment, and some do not; some get the diagnosis, and some do not.

We welcome your commentary on these two studies that essentially dispute what you have just said.

For more than 20 years in the House and the Senate, we have been paired up as advocates in terms of helping not only to race for the cure but to race for every other tool we had to be able to find a cure and for prevention.

This year Congress must reauthorize the Mammography Quality Standards Act, because women must continue to have safe, quality mammograms.

Women don't know who to believe or what they should do--do they get a mammogram or not?

In the absence of clarity, I'm concerned that these conflicting studies give an excuse to insurance companies to stop paying for mammograms.

Thank you very much, Senator Murray, for your compliments but most of all for your ongoing advocacy.

But not for the poor.

My question is this, Doctor. You have read the Danish study of Drs. Olsen and Gotzsche...

I am not for creating a whole big, new program just to create it.

Substantially less money.

That comes under the Counterterrorism Act that we just passed.

Drug Czar.

Well, Mayor O'Malley, thank you also for bringing to our attention the fact that MEMA has not released any money for fiscal year 1999, fiscal year 2000, and fiscal year 2001.

Mr. Carliner, I need you to write a letter to Governor Glendening. Let us ask where this money is because it should not be just sitting there.

I really think that there either has to be private responsibility or some type of partnership.

This is not to separate you two, because in some ways your fortunes are currently tied to the Governors.
