Expressing support for the designation of May as "National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month".
This resolution expresses the U.S. House of Representatives' support for designating May as "National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month." It does not create new laws or funding but calls on the public, advocacy groups, researchers, and those affected by bladder cancer to promote awareness and support during May. The resolution cites that bladder cancer affects over 800,000 families in the U.S., is among the top diagnosed cancers, and early detection improves survival rates. Its goal is to encourage community activities that raise public knowledge about the disease and support for patients and research.
