Expressing support for the designation of September 2024 as "National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month".

HRES 1511 is a symbolic resolution expressing the House of Representatives' support for designating September 2024 as "National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month." It does not create new laws or allocate funds but calls for raising public awareness about prostate cancer screening, encouraging research into prevention and treatment, and promoting access to care. The resolution directly affects all Americans, particularly men at risk of prostate cancer, by urging communities, healthcare providers, and organizations to participate in awareness activities during September. It references existing federal cancer research funding (like the $110 million for the Department of Defense Prostate Cancer Research Program) but does not change current policy.
