• I am a volunteer with >TAG<@ACSCANMichigan, and this week I will be advocating for cancer fighting policies with advocates from across the state for Michigan’s Cancer Action Week. We may not be at the capitol in Lansing this year, but we will still make an impact and tell our lawmakers to make fighting cancer a top priority! #MICancerActionWeek • The current pandemic puts increased stress on so many cancer patients. That’s why I am advocating with >TAG<@ACSCANMichigan next week for Michigan’s Virtual Cancer Action Week. I will be advocating for cancer fighting policies to support cancer patients, survivors and caregivers. Cancer hasn’t stopped so neither have we. #MICancerActionWeek
General Posts to Kick Off the Week • Today I begin Michigan’s Cancer Action Week! As a volunteer with >TAG<@ACSCANMichigan I will be joining advocates across the state to advocate for cancer fighting policies, to share our personal stories and to virtually meet with our lawmakers. I may not be able to meet with (tag state representative & state senator) today in Lansing, but I will still be encouraging them to make fighting cancer a top priority! #MICancerActionWeek #MILeg • As a volunteer with >TAG<@ACSCANMichigan I am calling on ((TAG state senator) to support Oral Chemotherapy Fairness legislation (H.B. 4354) and Tobacco Quit Line funding to bring Michiganders better access to care and protection for kids from Big Tobacco. #MICancerActionWeek #MIAccesstoCare #MILeg • Join me this week by following along with >TAG<@ACSCANMichigan and take action! Will you help me call on Michigan lawmakers to make cancer fighting policies a top priority. Cancer hasn’t stopped so neither have we. #MICancerActionWeek
