SCR 114 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges Congress to enact "Find It Early Act."

This New Jersey Senate Concurrent Resolution (SCR 114) urges Congress to pass the "Find It Early Act" (H.R. 3086), a federal bill introduced by Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro. The resolution highlights that women with dense breast tissue - approximately half of women over 40 - face challenges detecting breast cancer early with standard mammograms, and additional screenings like ultrasounds or MRIs are often not fully covered by insurance. It emphasizes that requiring insurance coverage for these supplemental screenings would improve affordability and access for women at higher risk, potentially increasing early detection rates (where 5-year survival is 99%). The resolution does not create new law but formally requests Congress enact this existing bill.
