A Resolution recognizing February 15, 2025, as "International Childhood Cancer Day" in Pennsylvania.

SR 45 is a symbolic resolution recognizing February 15, 2025, as "International Childhood Cancer Day" in Pennsylvania. The resolution highlights global childhood cancer statistics - including that cancer is a leading cause of disease-related death among children in the U.S. - and aims to raise awareness, honor children affected by cancer, and encourage support for research and care. It does not create new laws or directly affect specific groups, but calls on Pennsylvanians to join efforts to advance pediatric cancer research and improve access to treatment. The resolution is purely commemorative, with no policy changes or funding mechanisms attached.
