A resolution designating November 2024 as "National Lung Cancer Awareness Month" and expressing support for early detection and treatment of lung cancer.

This resolution designates November 2024 as "National Lung Cancer Awareness Month" and includes specific observances: the first week of November as "National Women's Lung Cancer Awareness Week" and the second Saturday of November as "National Lung Cancer Screening Day." It expresses support for increasing public awareness, education, and research on lung cancer screening, treatment, and disparities - particularly for high-risk groups like veterans, Black men, and non-smokers. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but aims to encourage public health efforts to address low screening rates (currently 3-7% of at-risk individuals) and improve early detection. It directly affects the public, healthcare providers, and advocacy groups by promoting educational activities during this designated period.
