AN ACT ESTABLISHING A PILOT PROGRAM TO SCREEN PAID AND VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS FOR CANCERS COMMON TO FIREFIGHTERS.

HB 6639 establishes a pilot program to screen both paid and volunteer firefighters for cancers commonly linked to firefighting. The program will operate in one municipality with a volunteer fire department and one with a paid fire department. It directly affects firefighters in those specific communities by providing access to cancer screenings, aiming to address health risks associated with their profession.
