Two retirees, one with a hip replacement and the other had a knee replacement, are biking across America and the proceeds are going to St. Baldrick's. Neither has a child in their family that had #ChildhoodCancer! Check it out! @HappyQuailPress @cac2org heraldnet.com/news/no-e-bike…

Please support a bill before Congress now that has the potential of providing 100's of million$ to #ChildhoodCancer research. No taxpayer funds needed, it uses fines paid by bad acting drug companies who are violating existing law. wp.me/P2TETU-1VB @HappyQuailPress

TY @RepWexton for championing the #GMKF2 & fighting for our kids battling #ChildhoodCancer & disease. The #bipartisan Bill will be a game changer for funding research! @JoeBaber1 @cac2org @StBaldricks @KFILE @timkaine @kidsfirstDRC @NBTStweets @JaceWard3 – at Virginia, USA
Earlier today, I introduced the Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act 2.0 to provide greater funding for childhood cancer & rare disease research. I took some time to talk to Gabriella’s mom, Ellyn, about their family’s story. It was a privilege to work with her on this bill.

Before Gabriella died of a brain tumor at age 10, she challenged her elected officials to "stop talking, start doing." I'm proud to introduce the #GMKF2 Act today in her honor, which will expand funding for childhood cancer and rare disease research. wexton.house.gov/news/docume…

We have one more week to convince the Senate to pass The Creating Hope Act, if it fails to pass, it will have a detrimental effect on new drugs for #ChildhoodCancer. Make this week really count! Ask your friends and neighbors to help too! Please share!4sqclobberscancer.com/on-cap…

After 8 years, please don’t allow the Creating Hope Reauthorization Act – S. 4010 to die on YOUR watch! We only have 4 drugs specifically approved just for #ChildhoodCancer. They are not the same as adult cancers. We must pass it 12/11/20! @timkaine @SenAlexander @PattyMurray

On Glioblastoma Awareness Day, I’m thinking of Senator John McCain, Beau Biden, and so many others that we lost too soon to this deadly disease. It’s hard to watch someone you love go through something so painful. #GBMDay
