The House just passed a bill that makes the biggest cut to #Medicaid in history & kicks millions off health coverage. This will have a lasting impact on the fight against cancer. Health care costs will ⬆️& those who need screening/preventive care could have to go without. (1/2)

I know Congressman Bill Foster has been a champion for cancer research funding, from his perspective as a scientist & as someone who has a loved one face cancer. I hope he can work to convince more of his colleagues to support lifesaving research. Chicago Tribune chicagotribune.com/2025/07/03/let…

Unless Congress extends the enhanced premium tax credits, more than 24 million people with Marketplace plans will face higher health insurance costs. And 4.2 million people, many with serious illnesses like cancer, will be left uninsured. Please share to spread the word. (2/2)

Comprehensive, affordable health care shouldn’t be a luxury. At ACS CAN, we will continue supporting #Medicare and #Medicaid, and advocating to eliminate barriers to care—because everyone deserves a fair and just opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer. (2/2)
