Introduced on September 3, 2025 by Troy Carter
Designates a National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month and urges actions to raise awareness, promote screening and early detection, encourage research, and improve access to quality care. It highlights facts about prostate cancer—who is most affected, higher rates and mortality among African-American men, the role of family history, often limited early symptoms, and existing VA Precision Oncology Centers—and calls on people and organizations to observe the awareness month with educational and outreach activities.
The resolution is symbolic: it promotes public education and stakeholder engagement but does not create new programs, appropriate funds, or impose requirements on governments or agencies.
Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
