This Senate Resolution officially designates May 2026 as "National Brain Tumor Awareness Month." The designation highlights the significant impact of brain tumors, which affect over a million individuals in the United States and are a leading cause of cancer death in children and young adults. It also acknowledges the low survival rates and the complex challenges in treating the more than 100 types of brain tumors. The resolution encourages increased public awareness to honor those affected by brain tumors and supports efforts to develop better treatments that improve quality of life and long-term prognosis. It expresses solidarity with patients, their families, and caregivers, while also urging a collaborative approach to brain tumor research as a promising path to advancing understanding and treatment options.
