Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month; March 2025; recognize

This resolution (HR 230) is a commemorative measure recognizing March 2025 as Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. It does not create new laws or policies but encourages eligible citizens to consult healthcare providers about screenings. The resolution highlights existing efforts, such as a pilot project by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) and Community Health Care Systems, to improve follow-up colonoscopy rates for uninsured patients. It notes that early detection of colorectal cancer has a 90% survival rate but does not mandate any actions or changes to healthcare access.
