Recognizing April as Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Month.
Sponsored By: Representative Miller, Max L. [R-OH-7]
Introduced
Summary
Early cancer prevention and detection is the focus of this bill, which would designate April as Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Month and affirm a renewed national commitment to education and screening. The resolution cites over 2,000,000 cancer diagnoses in 2025, notes that up to 50 percent of cases and deaths are preventable, and highlights barriers such as cost, limited knowledge, and unequal access for underserved communities. It urges prevention steps like risk-based screening, vaccinations, avoiding tobacco, healthier lifestyles, and better monitoring for high-risk people, and it commends multi-cancer early detection research and innovation. The measure is ceremonial and non-binding.
