SB 46 Ohio Senate · 136th Legislature (2025-2026)

Add screening awareness to Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month

SB 46 would rename "Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month" in Ohio law to "Colorectal Cancer Screening and Awareness Month" by amending section 5.2219 of the Revised Code. This is a procedural change to the designation of the awareness month, not a new program or funding measure. The bill directly affects how the month is officially recognized under Ohio law, explicitly including screening awareness in its name. It does not create new requirements, funding, or services for residents. The bill was introduced on January 28, 2025, and referred to committee.
