Please take a moment right now to reach out to your Member of Congress to ask them to pass the year end package.
URGENT: Congress has just days to pass a year-end package, which includes a bill to make multi-cancer #EarlyDetection tests more available.
Last call➡️Send a message to your members of Congress right now urging them to prioritize the fight against cancer.

This is super important. Take a moment to tag your Member of Congress to tell them to vote yes on the year end package.
Thrilled to see language based on the #MCEDAct included in text of the year-end health care package!
This bill creates a pathway for access to early detection for people with Medicare—which is critical because the risk of cancer increases with age.
We urge swift passage. bit.ly/3ZZCIQe
