Stomach Cancer; increased awareness; express support
This resolution (SR 372) expresses the Georgia Senate's support for increased awareness of stomach cancer, a disease that causes significant illness and death globally and in Georgia (where it ranks 11th in mortality). It highlights that stomach cancer accounts for about 1.5% of U.S. cancer diagnoses, has racial disparities, and often goes undetected due to low awareness. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but urges greater advocacy, education, and research to improve early detection and patient outcomes. It directs the Senate Secretary to distribute copies to the public and press.
