ICYMI: Last night, the Senate passed the debt ceiling deal. ACS CAN President @LLacasseACSCAN explains what it means for progress in the fight against cancer. #DebtCeilingDeal #CancerAdvocacy #CancerResearch

Progress in the fight against cancer is on the line. Cuts to care and cures in the debt ceiling proposal compromise our goal to end cancer as we know it, for everyone.
Urge Congress to protect cancer research and access to care: act.fightcancer.org/a/no-cut… #NoCutsToCuresOrCare
ACS CAN New Jersey retweeted
Millions of cancer patients, survivors & families are counting on lawmakers to protect cancer research funding, prevention, early detection & access to care.
Congress: Don’t let them down. Oppose cuts to cancer cures and care in any debt ceiling proposal.
