Expressing support for the designation of May 2024 as "National Brain Tumor Awareness Month".
HRES 1264 is a symbolic congressional resolution expressing support for designating May 2024 as "National Brain Tumor Awareness Month." It highlights that over 90,000 Americans are expected to be diagnosed with a primary brain tumor in 2024, brain tumors are the leading cause of cancer death in children under 14 and teens under 19, and survival rates remain low. The resolution encourages public awareness, supports efforts to develop better treatments, and honors those affected by brain tumors. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new programs or funding but aims to elevate national attention on this health issue.
