Today, the @AmericanCancer Society released Breast Cancer Facts & Figures 2024, a report on breast cancer occurrence and trends in the US.

The new report finds breast cancer mortality rates overall have dropped by 44% since 1989, but that not all women have benefited from this progress. To learn more, visit: https://t.co/Gav1a22ogq

So grateful you leant your powerful voice and story to this amazing film. You are a tireless advocate for a healthcare system for all especially individuals who have been intentionally prevented from accessing the care and thriving.

So surreal to be sitting here about to view this documentary film that I had the honor of being a part of. @ACSCAN & @BlackVotersMtr partnered with film director, Ashley O’Shay, to tell the story of families caught in the gap in the 10 states that have not expanded #medicaid

The #CancerMoonshot has continued to prioritize investments in cancer research and prevention, early detection, and affordable access to care to save more lives. 

We thank @POTUS for this commitment and stand ready to continue this work with lawmakers.

Another example about the importance of cancer research funding. @ACSCAN #cancer research

Exciting news: @theNCI researchers and collaborators have developed a non-chemotherapy treatment regimen that is achieving full remissions for some people with aggressive B-cell lymphoma that has come back or is no longer responding to standard treatments. https://t.co/NQ5Et5i0lt

Lisa Lacasse, president of the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, said in a statement the proposal is "expansion in name-only."

"Including work requirements is not increasing access to care, it's erecting barriers," she said.

This vote means everything to people without insurance. Now time for the House and Senate to come together and make this happen. People lives are in your hands.

[Lucy C. Dagneau @thelucygoose]

BREAKING: MS Senate passes a Medicaid expansion bill with a veto-proof majority, 37-15. While the Senate bill does not fully expand Medicaid we expect it to head to a conference committee so they can work with the House. This is BIG! 🥳🥳🥳

[Lucy C. Dagneau @thelucygoose]

These incredible faith leaders turned out today in MS!!! Beyond grateful for their service and bravery. @JasonCoker316 at the podium speaking truth! #closethegapMS
