#MCEDAct 🙌
House passage of the #MCEDAct wouldn’t have been possible without leaders like Congresswoman Sarah McBride. Thank you for standing up for early cancer detection!

The bill now goes to the Senate for a vote next week.
Liver cancer is rising quickly, but 60% of cases are preventable through early detection. Thank you, Congressman David Valadao, for your support of the hashtag #MCEDAct. Now is the time to pass it and strengthen early detection for Californians.

This week, we've witnessed overwhelming bipartisan momentum and committee action in support of #MCEDAct. With @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social markup & House E&C committee hearing, Congress must finish the job & PASS this crucial legislation.
The #MCEDAct “is the first and only health care bill to garner majority support in both the House and Senate. That level of bipartisan consensus is almost unheard of. But the job isn’t finished until this bill becomes law.” tinyurl.com/4ahasr79
One year ago, the House Ways and Means Committee voted unanimously to pass the bipartisan #MCEDAct —the most-supported health care bill in Congress—with ACS CAN volunteers in attendance to show their support. We urge Congress to pass this bill to increase #EarlyDetection of cancer.
June is #CancerSurvivorMonth, and we’re highlighting the need for early detection. Impact Melanoma advocate Dr. Emily Herzberg asks @warren.senate.gov and @markey.senate.gov to pass S.339, the #MCEDAct, so we can have more cancer survivors in the years to come.
During #CancerSurvivorsMonth, we honor former WNA President Pamela Macari Sanberg. Let’s create more survivors—urge Congress to pass the #MCEDAct. Early detection saves lives.
