Volunteers from the Association for Clinical Oncology (ASCO) were on Capitol Hill on April 17 for the 2024 ASCO Advocacy Summit where they met with lawmakers to discuss critical issues in cancer care and research. During the event, more than 170 advocates from 48 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico met with more than 200 congressional offices. The Advocacy Summit was accompanied by a broader Week of Action, during which ASCO advocates from across the country sent almost 1,000 messages to Members of Congress through the ACT Network.
ASCO in Action provides the latest news and analysis related to critical policy issues affecting the cancer community, updates on the Association for Clinical Oncology’s ongoing advocacy efforts, and opportunities for members and others in the cancer care community to take action.
