We're calling on @POTUS to finalize the FDA's proposed rules to #ProhibitMenthol cigarettes and flavored cigars immediately. To reach the #CancerMoonshot goals, we must meaningfully address tobacco use. @WHOSTP must act now. We can't keep these deadly products on the market.

The #MCEDAct aims to improve future equitable access to new & innovative #CancerScreenings among #Medicare beneficiaries in order to increase early detection of more cancers for more individuals. We call on Congress to prioritize passage of this lifesaving legislation this year.

Detecting cancer early can be the difference between life and death. This week the Senate introduced the #MCEDAct, which would allow Medicare to cover multi-cancer screening tests once FDA-approved and proven to have clinical benefit. https://t.co/Ep83G6Osvf

Today we celebrate #Juneteenth, which marks the end of slavery in the US & commemorates the independence of Black Americans. Juneteenth is also a reminder of the importance of our lifesaving work for all. We're asking our teams to listen, learn & support the Black community.

The desire to end #cancer is one thing all political leaders can agree on. Congress must invest in the @NIH, which is vital to ensuring better health for families in every community across the country. Read the op-ed endorsed by @AmerCancerCEO and others: https://t.co/S7dzmrl8NA

We applaud SCOTUS for protecting the rights of individuals to access #Medicaid benefits & coverage. Access to Medicaid significantly improves health outcomes, reduces health disparities, & improves early detection for the 86 million+ covered nationwide. https://t.co/2IuiX1ZQzr
