Every year 150,000 Americans die of lung cancer.þSmoking causes cancer but so does exposure to toxic substances,þþlike asbestos. Many of our union members that are diagnosedþþwith lung cancer are treated for the disease butþþnot the cause. Doctors could be unaware that their patientsþþhave been exposed to toxic substances. If a union member smokesþþand has been exposed to asbestos there is an increased riskþþof lung cancer by 50 to 100 times.þþUnion members and their families might be entitled to monetaryþþcompensation if they have lung cancer whether they smoked or not.þþFor more information please callþþUS Union Network at 206-244-0738þþor send an email to info@usunions.com
