Urges U.S. Preventive Services Task Force to lower recommended colorectal cancer screening age from 50 to 45.

This concurrent resolution (SCR 101) urges the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) to lower its recommended colorectal cancer screening age from 50 to 45 for individuals with average cancer risk. It cites CDC and American Cancer Society data showing rising colorectal cancer rates in younger adults - particularly those born in the 1990s, who face double the colon cancer risk and quadruple rectal cancer risk compared to those born in the 1950s. The resolution states that starting screening at age 45 for average-risk individuals could reduce colorectal cancer deaths, based on ACS recommendations. As a non-binding resolution, it does not change policy but requests the USPSTF reconsider its guidelines.
