Senator Hugh T. Farley

February 5, 2016

For more than a decade, millions of women have united to raise their voices about heart disease as part of the Go Red For Women movement, State Senator Hugh T. Farley (R, C, I – Schenectady) said. These efforts have helped save lives and improve the health of thousands of women across the country.

While  progress is being made, heart disease is still the No. 1 killer of women. Today, te first Friday in February, is named National Wear Red Day to bring attention to this silent killer of women, Senator Farley said.

On behalf of the American Heart Association's Go Red For Women Campaign, please join me in celebrating National Wear Red Day on Friday, Feb. 5, 2016 to help fight heart disease.
