Congress just passed the most impactful cancer-fighting bill in years, thanks to advocates like you! Your advocacy made a difference. This bill means more people can be screened for #cancer earlier, get treatment sooner, and have a better chance to survive & thrive. Thank you ❤️

With early-onset #ColorectalCancer continuing to rise, lifesaving #CancerResearch is more critical than ever. That's why we're calling on Congress to provide robust, sustained funding for cancer research @theNCI and funding for colorectal cancer programs @CDCgov @CDC_Cancer.

Listen to @AmericanCancer @rlsiegel25 talk to lawmakers on Capitol Hill for Call-on Congress 2026 and drive change for #colorectalcancer patients and families. #getscreened @ACS_Research drive.google.com/file/d/13vK-jP…

We applaud the U.S. House for voting to reauthorize the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs and urge swift passage to strengthen the role of small, innovative firms in federally funded research and development.

We are very saddened to share that longtime @ACSCAN volunteer Russell Gillard passed away yesterday from stage 4 stomach cancer. For nearly 30 yrs, Russ dedicated himself to the fight against cancer and to ensuring patients, survivors, and families had a voice in public policy.

It was a wonderful day at The University of Kansas Cancer Center Advocacy Day at the Capitol as we all came together to advocate for our patients and express gratitude for past victories! 🎉 It was also fantastic to witness the collaboration with American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network and Susan G. Komen Advocacy. Coalition building and working together towards common goals is so imperative when advocating for access to care! #Gratitude
