Woman honored for work with breast cancer patients
Montgomery County honors Rose Kushner posthumously as she is inducted into the Maryland Hall of Fame alongside former State Senator Margaret Schweinhaut and civil rights advocate Carmen Delgado Votán. Her husband Harvey Kushner notes gains in breast cancer research and care since her January 1990 death and advocates increased funding and national health coverage. He continues her Rose Kushner Breast Cancer Advisory Center work and serves on ACS task force while warning of rising cases and deaths. Curran cites half a million Marylanders under 65 uninsured and urges action ahead of the Democratic convention.
