HOUSE RESOLUTION COMMEMORATING MAY OF 2025, AS "BRAIN CANCER AND TUMOR AWARENESS MONTH" IN THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND

This bill (HR 6367) is a symbolic resolution designating May 2025 as "Brain Cancer and Tumor Awareness Month" in Rhode Island. It does not create new laws or allocate funds but formally recognizes the impact of brain tumors - highlighting statistics like 200 annual diagnoses in the state and their effect on patients and families. The resolution urges Rhode Islanders to support research and treatment, and directs the Secretary of State to send certified copies to the Rhode Island Brain and Spine Tumor Foundation and the American Brain Tumor Association. As a commemorative measure, it has no direct regulatory or financial impact on individuals or organizations.
