Senator Sanders: why did you block the Senate vote of the Mikaela Naylon Give Kids a Chance Act?

[PAC2 @PAC_2]

@childrenscause @RepGusBilirakis @MikeKellyPA @RepMcCaul @USRepKCastor Yeah thanks a lot reps.....It's been 15 years and funding levels are still essentially the same. Do better - you are employed by us and the kids.

Sometimes, a good piece of legislation fails to become a law for one simple, stupid reason: congressional inertia.https://t.co/DyDdmqty3v

This is #ChildhoodCancer Awareness Month. We must use every opportunity to let America know how much their support is needed. It is the number one killer of children by disease. We must give our children a voice. Our childhood cancer community needs parents who have never been affected to join and help us make childhood cancer a National Priority...

Day 1 #ChildhoodCancerAwarenessMonth 🎗️

The #1 disease claiming the lives of children in the U.S. is #ChildhoodCancer . Children in the midst of cancer treatment display loving care that is far beyond their years. They need more research/more treatment options.

Just a great blog post from Robert, formerly an 18-year old with cancer, now a clinical fellow in hematology/oncology, reflecting on the importance of continued funding for cancer research. It saved his life.

The Give Kids a Chance Act is a bill to promote drug development for children with cancer and other life threatening rare diseases. It includes the pediatric priority review voucher, which has resulted in over 60 new drugs for kids with cancer since 2012.
