An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Fund The National Cancer Institute at Their Full Requested Level

106 so far! Help us get to 250 signers!

I am your constituent and I am shocked to see that the Republican led House Appropriations Subcommittee that addresses Health, Labor and Education has proposed an 8% cut to cancer research. $7.1 billion. But that’s not the worst of it. The National Cancer Institute really needs $9.988 billion in order to build out prevention and early detection programs and to fund novel and innovative treatments so we can cut the cancer rate in half (Cancer Moonshot). I want you to disapprove the Republican recommendation and provide the amount that the National Cancer Institute really needs. Lives are at stake here and you can fix this.
