Bill > LD2029

This bill designates the month of March as Maine Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and requires the Governor to annually issue a proclamation encouraging the public to observe the month through appropriate activities and to become informed about childhood cancer. The bill is being enacted as an emergency measure due to the high rates of childhood cancer in Maine and the need to increase public awareness before Maine taxpayers file their tax returns, which allows them to contribute to the Maine Children's Cancer Research Fund.
