2026 Regular Session - Day 16 - Resolution | Rep. Amy Neighbors

Mr. Speaker, the American Cancer Society and the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network joined forces today for Suits and Sneakers Day. While both organizations work 24-7, 365 days a year to increase cancer awareness and promote healthy living, Suits and Sneakers Day gives cancer awareness advocates like myself an opportunity to have our voices heard. It allows us yet another chance to empower others to live healthier lives but also promote public policy that helps others do the same. Most of my colleagues know that I am a cancer survivor and I appreciate the support they've shown me as I have shared my colon cancers. This year, an estimated 30,000 Kentuckians will be diagnosed with cancer. They will have a difficult road ahead of them, but thanks to the work we've done to increase access to screenings and treatment, they have hope. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I move adoption of resolution number 33.
