I just wanted to make everyone aware of the Congressional Butt-In on March 19th
Colon cancer is a preventative cancer, with access and obtaining proper screening colon cancer can be detected early and treated quickly.
Three bills sit in the 110th Congress that, if passed, will provide coverage of nearly every butt in America that should be screened: those belonging to the poor and underserved, the elderly and those with private insurance.
The Colorectal Cancer Prevention, Early Detection, and Treatment Act
The Colon Cancer Screen for Life Act
The Colorectal Cancer Screening and Detection Coverage Act
