Too many NC patients are missing out on #BiomarkerTesting needed to personalize their cancer treatment b/c their insurance won’t cover it. Without action like HB 567, advances in precision medicine can INCREASE disparities in cancer outcomes by race, income & insurance type.
@SenBillRabon , please make sure more North Carolinians have coverage for #BiomarkerTesting. North Carolina patients need to get the right treatment at the right time to best fight their disease. #BiomarkerTestingNC
It was great seeing @RoyCooperNC last week, but we wish we had the chance to ask you if you will sign the #CancerPromise and commit to helping save lives from cancer if elected.

The U.S. House of Representatives just voted YES on the year-end spending bill!
Thank you, @RepHudsonNC, for supporting the #MCEDAct and cancer issues to ensure patients, survivors, and families benefit from advances in #CancerResearch, prevention, detection, and treatment.
We gathered cancer advocates nationwide to share their hope for the future of cancer cures. These hopes can become reality through #CancerResearch.

Thank you @RepAdams for voting to extend health care #TaxCredits & prioritizing the health & wellbeing of your constituents, including cancer patients. We're grateful you signed the #CancerPromise in 2024 & honored your pledge to make cancer a national priority.
@SenThomTillis , cancer patients, survivors, and families need you to #ProtectCancerCures. Can they count on you to support funding for lifesaving cancer research and prevention programs in the full-year spending bill?
Every breakthrough in cancer treatment and prevention has started with federal funding. We can't jeopardize progress and undermine decades of momentum. @SenTedBuddNC , we're urging you to #ProtectCancerCures in the full-year spending bill.
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.
September is Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Month. More than 100,000 women in the US are diagnosed each year. Screening and awareness can save lives. #GCAM#EndGynecologicCancer
Thank you @RepDeborahRoss for meeting with our volunteer team today. We appreciate your commitment to helping cancer patients through robust research and prevention funding! #CancerLobbyDay#ProtectCancerCures
Thank @RepRichHudson for meeting with our volunteer team today. We appreciate your support of the Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act!#CancerLobbyDay#ProtectCancerCures
Our team from North Carolina went to @SenThomTillis office this morning to thank him for his support of cancer patients and ask for his continued help in the fight against cancer. #CancerLobbyDay#ProtectCancerCures
Our team from North Carolina is in D.C. this week to advocate for cancer patients. Thank you to each volunteer who took time away from home and family to be with us and fight back against cancer!! #CancerLobbyDay
Scott is a childhood cancer survivor. Research saved his life. Cuts to research and clinical trials will halt progress and innovation in the fight against cancer. @SenThomTillis please protect NIH, NCI, and CDC funding. We need more cures for kids with cancer #ProtectCancerCures
Thank you to @SenThomTillis for signing a July 24 14-member letter to @WHOMB asking for proper disbursement of appropriated FY25 @NIH research funds. This funding is critical in the fight against cancer nationwide. We hope we can count on you to #ProtectCancerCures in FY26, too
Today, the U.S. House passed a bill that will strip health coverage from millions & increase health care costs.
We’re extremely disappointed in our NC House members who voted yes. North Carolinians & cancer patients who rely on lifesaving care could be left without insurance.
