Today, the U.S. House passed a bill that will strip health coverage from millions & increase health care costs. Congressman Josh Brecheen, we’re extremely disappointed in your vote. Oklahomans & cancer patients who rely on lifesaving care could be left without insurance.

.American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network urges Congress to pass the Nancy Gardner Sewell Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act. #MCED tests could be a major breakthrough in reducing the cancer burden—but only if people can access them.

Millions can afford health insurance thanks to health care #TaxCredits. But these are set to expire at the end of 2025, which could cause working families & patients to face crushing hikes in costs. Urge Congress to renew the health care tax credits now⬇️act.fightcancer.org/a/congress-ren…

“This isn’t about partisanship. It’s about values, community, compassion and responsibility.” Shagah Zakerion, a cancer survivor and Tulsa business owner, could lose the coverage she needs if the enhanced ACA tax credits are not renewed by Congress. tulsaworld.com/opinion/column…

The #MCEDAct hit 400 cosponsors today! As the most-supported bill in Congress, there's overwhelming bipartisan support to get this important legislation over the finish line. 💪 If passed, it could help innovative cancer #EarlyDetection tests reach more people who need them.

We stand with @PreventCancer and 550+ organizations urging #Congress to pass the bipartisan #MCEDAct and expand access to early cancer detection. We urge Leader John Thune, Chuck Schumer, Speaker Mike Johnson, and Hakeem Jeffries to advance this bill.
