VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
A house RESOLUTION
to honor cancer patients, survivors, and their families, to remember those who have been lost to cancer, and to recognize February 26, 2025, as "Suits and sneakers Day" in South Carolina.
Whereas, Suits and Sneakers is a collaboration between the American Cancer Society and the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network leveraging the personal experiences, community leadership, and professional excellence of coaches nationwide to increase cancer awareness and promote healthy living through year-round awareness efforts, fundraising activities, and advocacy programs; and
Whereas, the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network empowers advocates across the State to make their voices heard and influence evidence-based public policy change that will reduce the cancer burden on our State; and
Whereas, it is estimated that more than thirty-five thousand South Carolinians will be diagnosed with cancer in 2025; and
Whereas, cancer patients face countless challenges associated with their diagnoses, including physical, emotional, financial, and day-to-day challenges; and
Whereas, as South Carolina continues to navigate tough legislation, it is more important than ever to support efforts to combat cancer; and
Whereas, not only will effective policies to prevent, detect, and treat cancer save countless lives, but they will significantly reduce the financial strain that this disease places on South Carolinians and our great State; and
Whereas, the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network would like to recognize all cancer survivors, caregivers, and advocates. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor cancer patients, survivors, and their families, remember those who have been lost to cancer, and recognize February 26, 2025, as "Suits and Sneakers Day" in South Carolina.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Governor and to all members of the South Carolina House of Representatives.
