“This week, the U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations considered and approved its draft FY25 appropriations bill that includes significant increases for the National Cancer Institute (NCI) increases for federal cancer research funding at National Cancer Institute (NCI) and an increase for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC)Division of Cancer Prevention and Control.
The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) applauds this significant increase in funding for NIH and increase for NCI and appreciate the Committee’s bipartisan commitment to our nation’s critical investment in cancer research.”
