#FY27 appropriations negotiations are here & lives are on the line. Funding @NIH, @theNCI & @CDC_Cancer fuels the research, prevention & early detection programs Americans rely on. OVAC urges Congress to act: Cancer won’t wait, and neither can investment.
30 years ago, the outlook for cancer patients looked very different. Thanks to organizations like @CancerResrch, the death rate has decreased 34%.🩺That’s millions of lives saved & proof of what sustained research & advocacy can do. Let’s keep going. #NationalCancerResearchMonth
Appropriations talks are heating up on The Hill & cancer funding should be center stage with our elected officials.🔥In 2026, 2.1M Americans will face cancer in 2026. Congress, protect #ResearchFunding that saves lives. @NIH @theNCI @CDC_Cancer @ARPA_H
Spring cleaning? Let’s start with cancer funding levels that fall short of what’s needed to ensure cutting edge research and prevention.🥀🌹 Congress, continue prioritizing #CancerResearch!

Today at the Ways and Means Committee markup, I spoke in strong support of H.R. 842, the Nancy Gardner Sewell Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act—introduced by my friend, @RepTerriSewell, and which I’m proud to co-sponsor.
This bipartisan bill ensures that Medicare covers FDA-approved multi-cancer early detection (MCED) tests without delay, giving seniors timely access to cutting-edge screening that can detect dozens of cancers—often before symptoms appear.
As Co-Chair of the Congressional Cancer Caucus, this fight is personal. I’ve made it my mission to advance earlier detection, faster access, and smarter cancer policy. We have the science. We have the technology. What we need now is urgency.
We cannot let red tape stand in the way of a second chance.
H.R. 842 is how we change the story.
Let’s pass this bill. And let’s make early detection the standard—not the exception.

🚨7 out of 8 research proposals are rejected by @theNCI due to lack of funding🚨This means promising proposals for life-saving cancer research go unfunded—and that slows scientific innovation in cancer research, risking lives. Congress, prioritize funding for cancer research!
