Advocacy group supporting it already: 

  1. American Lung Association

The NIH has increased its funding for lung cancer from $331 million in 2016 to $447 million in 2020. We ask that this increase in funding is maintained in this fiscal year to continue to improve patient outcomes, quality of life, and screening.
