Expressing support for the designation of September 30, 2023, as "Rare Cancer Day" to highlight the challenges patients with rare cancers face and to raise awareness and support efforts to improve early diagnosis and treatment.

This resolution expresses official congressional support for designating September 30 as "Rare Cancer Day." The measure aims to raise public awareness about the unique challenges faced by the nearly one in five Americans diagnosed with a rare cancer, including all pediatric cancers.

While the resolution does not create new laws or provide direct funding, it serves as a formal recognition to encourage earlier diagnosis, support research for new treatments, and unify patients and advocates. For everyday citizens, this designation highlights the need for specialized care and increased resources for medical conditions that are often overlooked due to their low frequency in the general population.
