Cancer patients and their families depend on lifesaving cancer research. Every new breakthrough in cancer treatment and prevention starts with federal funding. Cuts to cancer research mean slowing progress, delaying new treatments, and putting lives at risk. Cuts to research funding, reductions in key staff, and spending freezes all jeopardize progress in the fight against cancer and undermine decades of momentum. Cancer advocates are calling on you to oppose cuts to cancer research funding and prioritize the fight against cancer in your next budget bill.
