A resolution expressing support for the goals of Stomach Cancer Awareness Month.

SRES 839 is a symbolic Senate resolution expressing support for Stomach Cancer Awareness Month in November 2022. It highlights key facts about stomach cancer, including its high mortality rate (11,090 U.S. deaths estimated in 2022), low early-stage survival rates (6% when diagnosed late), and disparities affecting racial and ethnic minorities. The resolution encourages public awareness efforts, better education for patients and healthcare providers, and additional research into early detection and treatment. It does not create new laws or allocate funding but urges states, territories, and local communities to support the awareness month's goals.
