Expressing support for the designation of May as "National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month".

This resolution expresses strong support for designating May as "National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month" .

The measure calls upon the people of the United States, interested groups, the research community, and affected individuals to actively promote awareness and understanding of bladder cancer. It seeks to foster a collective effort to fight the disease and encourages observing the awareness month with appropriate ceremonies and activities. The resolution underscores the need for renewed focus on research and advancements to improve patient outcomes and ultimately find a cure.
