Rodney Davis Pushing For More Childhood Cancer Research

Children’s cancer can be a very scary thought for parents. According to the national pediatric cancer foundation, 43 children per day are expected to be diagnosed with cancer and cancer is the number one death by disease among children. Congressman Rodney Davis is worried that not enough money is being put towards fighting these issues.

 

Congressman Davis says he has a common-sense solution to fixing this problem and that’s by pushing through legislation to help bring more money into fighting childhood cancer by using the Presidential Campaign fund that’s not being used and use it towards research for childhood cancer treatments.

 

 

Only 4% of the billions of dollars that are spent on cancer research and treatments are directed towards treating childhood cancer.
