A Resolution designating the month of September 2025 as "Prostate Cancer Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania.

This resolution designates September 2025 as "Prostate Cancer Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania. It symbolically raises public attention to prostate cancer, highlighting statistics like an estimated 13,000 new cases and 1,500 deaths in Pennsylvania during 2025. The resolution also urges Congress to support federal legislation (H.R. 1300) that would require health insurance coverage for prostate cancer screenings without cost-sharing for at-risk men. It does not create new laws or funding but aims to promote awareness and encourage preventive care.
