HRES 1000 United States House · 118th Congress

Expressing support for the designation of February 4, 2024, as "National Cancer Prevention Day".

HRES 1000 is a symbolic resolution designating February 4, 2024, as "National Cancer Prevention Day" to raise awareness about cancer prevention. It does not create new laws, allocate funding, or directly affect any individuals or groups - it is purely a commemorative gesture by the House of Representatives. The resolution cites cancer statistics (e.g., 1 in 4 U.S. deaths linked to cancer) and supports President Biden’s Cancer Moonshot initiative. It expresses recognition of cancer’s impact and encourages broader awareness, early detection, and collaboration with medical experts. As a procedural resolution, it has no binding policy effect.
