Expressing support for the designation of May as "National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month".
HRES 392 is a non-binding congressional resolution expressing support for designating May as "National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month." It does not create new laws or programs but formally urges the public, research groups, and affected individuals to promote awareness and early detection of bladder cancer during May. The resolution cites statistics showing over 84,000 new bladder cancer diagnoses and 17,420 deaths expected in the U.S. in 2025, emphasizing that early detection improves survival rates. It specifically highlights the disease's impact on veterans, firefighters, and women (who often face later diagnoses), and references ongoing efforts like the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network's work. The resolution calls for community observances and increased focus on research, but has no direct effect on policy or funding.
