Bi-partisan congressional leaders responded to our call to action and reintroduced the Women and Lung Cancer Research and Preventive Services Act of 2023 which draws an urgently needed bright light on the disparate impact lung cancer has on women.

The legislation directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services, in consultation with the Secretary of Defense and Secretary of Veterans Affairs, to conduct an interagency review to evaluate the status of, and identify opportunities related to:

  1. Increased research on women and lung cancer.
  2. Improved access to lung cancer preventive services.
  3. Launch of a national public awareness and education campaign on lung cancer.

We must amplify our efforts to make our voices heard and raise awareness. Together, we can demonstrate our strong commitment to positive change for the lung cancer community.
