Last month Congress re-opened the federal government  with a short-term funding bill through January 30. If they don’t pass full funding bills for the coming year before time runs out, colorectal cancer programs at the CDC, NIH, and NCI could be once again at risk for funding cuts or elimination. 

This would slow cancer research, limit access to lifesaving screenings, and delay progress for patients and families who urgently need support. Your voice can help prevent these setbacks. Tell your Members of Congress to pass full appropriations bills and protect the funding that drives cancer prevention, screening, and research.
