Urge Congress to Co-Sponsor the Stomach Cancer Prevention & Early Detection Act (H.R. 4841 – 119th Congress)

We're advocating for the Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act -- and you can help from home!

On February 11, 2025, Hope for Stomach Cancer held our second Gastric Cancer Advocacy Day on Capitol Hill to bridge the gap in stomach cancer disparities. As a direct result of the voices raised that day, Congresswoman Judy Chu and Congressman Joe Wilson introduced the bipartisan Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act (H.R. 4841 – 119th Congress). This critical legislation builds on our community’s efforts to improve early detection, address disparities, and expand research for high-risk and underserved populations. You can help amplify this progress by emailing your representatives and urging them to support the bill. Together, we can shape the future—starting now.

Stomach cancer remains one of the deadliest forms of cancer, often going undetected until it’s too late for effective treatment. The Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act, recently introduced in the House of Representatives, is a critical step toward changing this reality. If passed, this bipartisan legislation will expand research, raise awareness, and improve access to early detection and preventive care—efforts that are essential to saving lives and closing persistent gaps in care.

By asking your Representatives to support this bill and urging your Senators to introduce companion legislation, you’re helping ensure that more people—especially those at highest risk—have access to the tools and knowledge needed to detect stomach cancer early, when treatment is most effective. Your voice can drive this movement forward.

Thank you for your continued dedication to this urgent cause. For more background, please review our updated fact sheet: HOPE Fact Sheet

Subject: Co-Sponsor the Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act (H.R. 4841 – 119th Congress)

Message:

I’m reaching out to respectfully ask for your support of the Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act (H.R. 4841)—a bipartisan bill introduced by Rep. Judy Chu [D‑CA‑28] and Rep. Joe Wilson [R‑SC‑2]. This legislation, currently referred to the House Energy & Commerce, Armed Services, and Veterans' Affairs Committees, is a critical step toward saving lives by advancing research, raising awareness, and improving access to early detection and preventive care. Stomach cancer is often diagnosed too late, when treatment options are limited. This bill would direct the National Cancer Institute to conduct a comprehensive review of prevention, screening, and public awareness efforts, with a focus on high-risk and underserved communities. It also calls for strategies to improve early detection and equitable access to care. [Personal Testimonial: Please briefly share your story or explain why this issue matters to you.] I hope you’ll consider co-sponsoring this vital legislation. Advocates from across the country—including myself—will be in Washington, D.C., on March 10, 2026, for our 3rd Gastric Cancer Advocacy Day to continue championing this bill and urging its passage. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for introducing the Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act (H.R. 4841 – 119th Congress).

Stomach cancer is often diagnosed too late for effective treatment. Your bill will direct the National Cancer Institute to evaluate and improve prevention and screening efforts, expand public awareness of symptoms and risk factors, and increase access to life-saving early detection services. [Optional: Insert your personal story, experience as a patient/caregiver, or reason this legislation matters to you.] Thank you for your leadership and commitment to this cause.

Please Introduce the Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act

Subject: Please Introduce the Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act (H.R. 4841 – 119th Congress)

Message:

As a patient advocate, I respectfully urge you to introduce the Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act in the Senate. This important legislation, already introduced in the House (Stomach Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Act | H.R. 4841 – 119th Congress), is urgently needed to save lives through expanded research, public education, and increased access to early detection and preventive care for stomach cancer. Stomach cancer is too often diagnosed in its later stages, when treatment options are limited and outcomes are poor. Senate sponsorship of this bill would send a powerful message that earlier intervention and equitable access to screening matter. [Optional: Please add your personal story or connection to stomach cancer here.] We remain committed to this cause, and stomach cancer advocates will gather in Washington, D.C., on March 10, 2026 for the 3rd Gastric Cancer Advocacy Day to push this issue forward. Your leadership could make a life-saving difference. Thank you for considering this request.
