Congress passed a new bill to fund cancer research!

February 4, 2026

On February 3, 2026, Congress passed the most impactful cancer-fighting bill: protecting research funding and rejecting the 38% cuts that threatened to devastate cancer research.

 

When the Administration first proposed massive cuts to cancer research funding in the President’s Budget last February, we responded immediately, urging lawmakers to reject cuts and invest in cancer research.

Now, cancer patients will have access to more and better options for preventing, treating, and one day curing this disease.
