The proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2026 would eliminate the CDC’s Division of Cancer Prevention and Control, which supports the only federally funded education and screening programs focused on gynecologic cancers. Act today to ensure that programs proven to increase early detection, improve outcomes, and save federal dollars through prevention, are not eliminated.
