Two retirees, one with a hip replacement and the other had a knee replacement, are biking across America and the proceeds are going to St. Baldrick's. Neither has a child in their family that had #ChildhoodCancer! Check it out! @HappyQuailPress @cac2org heraldnet.com/news/no-e-bike…

Please support a bill before Congress now that has the potential of providing 100's of million$ to #ChildhoodCancer research. No taxpayer funds needed, it uses fines paid by bad acting drug companies who are violating existing law. wp.me/P2TETU-1VB @HappyQuailPress
Go Bruno!!

This is why we support @SBPdiscovery and @RobertReya
Between 250 - 500 kids are diagnosed with this most common cancerous brain tumor. When removed, tumor is examined to determine group risk level. Survival is 60%-70% however, a subset of patients with Group 3 MYC-amplified medulloblastoma have a survival rate of less than 25%.

TY @RepWexton for championing the #GMKF2 & fighting for our kids battling #ChildhoodCancer & disease. The #bipartisan Bill will be a game changer for funding research! @JoeBaber1 @cac2org @StBaldricks @KFILE @timkaine @kidsfirstDRC @NBTStweets @JaceWard3 – at Virginia, USA
Earlier today, I introduced the Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act 2.0 to provide greater funding for childhood cancer & rare disease research. I took some time to talk to Gabriella’s mom, Ellyn, about their family’s story. It was a privilege to work with her on this bill.

Before Gabriella died of a brain tumor at age 10, she challenged her elected officials to "stop talking, start doing." I'm proud to introduce the #GMKF2 Act today in her honor, which will expand funding for childhood cancer and rare disease research. wexton.house.gov/news/docume…

We have one more week to convince the Senate to pass The Creating Hope Act, if it fails to pass, it will have a detrimental effect on new drugs for #ChildhoodCancer. Make this week really count! Ask your friends and neighbors to help too! Please share!4sqclobberscancer.com/on-cap…

After 8 years, please don’t allow the Creating Hope Reauthorization Act – S. 4010 to die on YOUR watch! We only have 4 drugs specifically approved just for #ChildhoodCancer. They are not the same as adult cancers. We must pass it 12/11/20! @timkaine @SenAlexander @PattyMurray
