Cuts to Medicaid will harm cancer patients. That’s why our volunteers were on Capitol Hill today to deliver postcards to lawmakers asking that they vote NO on any cuts to Medicaid. Share this video & tag your lawmaker urging them to #ProtectMedicaid.

Massive, rushed cuts to Medicaid will hurt millions of hardworking people in America who count on it for lifesaving health care. This includes countless cancer patients & survivors. @SenJohnCurtis, please #ProtectMedicaid.

Medicaid provides essential health coverage to 80 million people across the country, including those with cancer. Any cuts could jeopardize lifesaving care. @RepBlakeMoore, @CelesteMaloyUT, @BurgessOwens, @RepMikeKennedy cancer patients need you to oppose cuts & #ProtectMedicaid

"By authorizing the sale of menthol flavored e-cigarettes, including 2 disposable menthol e-cigarettes, the agency (@FDATobacco) is continuing to allow Big Tobacco to addict yet another generation of youth to their products." - @ACSCAN Pres @LLacasseACSCAN fightcancer.org/releases/fda-d…

In a major blow to public health, today the @WhiteHouse issued a shocking announcement that it is indefinitely delaying the finalization of the @US_FDA’s rule to eliminate the sale of menthol cigarettes, with no mention of flavored cigars. #ProhibitMenthol fightcancer.org/releases/admin…

I did write my presidential vote on a small piece of green paper and hand it to the precinct chair. No ballot. I don’t think that how it was supposed to work. #utpol

It was disorganized. It was chaotic. But I went to caucus tonight and voted. Happy to have my vote counted, even if the logistics of the night did make me slightly grumpy.

Sen. @curtbramble is running this bill. Opponents to this bill say it will drastically increase rates. The data from other states says otherwise. Does the legislature really want to send the message to people like Carrie Ann to just “hurry up and die?” deseret.com/opinion/2024/2…

@racheldcraig Oh no! And now we get to do it all again Thursday morning

The annoyance that comes with sitting in a committee room for 2 hours only for the committee to run out of time and adjourn before getting to the bill you were there for is really unparalleled. #utleg

"I'm prepared to die of cancer. I'm not prepared to die because of a policy." Thank you to Carrie Ann for sharing her powerful story and to @fox13 for running it. All copays should count, no matter where they come from-Utahn's lives depend on it. fox13now.com/news/fox-13-in…

Prohibiting flavored tobacco products will protect youth, advance #HealthEquity & save lives. We're proud to join lawmakers nationwide & the public health community to call on @WhiteHouse to finalize rules to prohibit menthol cigarettes & flavored cigars. youtube.com/watch?v=MSb9Dl…

I'm fortunate to be part of an organization that works everyday to end cancer as we know it. Consider making a donation on this #GivingTuesday to support the important work of @ACSCAN.

Great to see @AmerCancerCEO quoted in @ddiamond's @washingtonpost story today on Dr. @KimrynRathmell's appointment to @theNCI director. “We must ensure that [cancer] breakthroughs actually get to people, and that will take a bipartisan strategy,” washingtonpost.com/health/2023/11…

Coincidence???

Spotted at Heathrow. It’s an @AmericanCancer plane!

The feeling of victory after successfully printing table tent cards with speaker names and organizations, 2 sided, from a bypass tray and having them look the way you want is truly unmatched.

@TammyLeeMarlene Right?!? It’s so good!!

@brookcarlisle Okay I got this and it might be my new fav! I’m going to try it with a shot of espresso next time.

I don’t want to admit how many iced PSLs I’ve had this week. 🎃 ☕️ 🧊

Every Light of Hope represents someone who has heard the words "you have cancer." Share their story by dedicating a Light of Hope and reminding Congress to make cancer a priority. acscan.donordrive.com/index.cfm?fuse…
