AI Summary
This bill, the Fairness to Kids with Cancer Act of 2021, requires the President to ensure that a fair percentage of the total amount of federal funds obligated for cancer research is dedicated to pediatric cancer research. The percentage of federal cancer research funds to be used for pediatric cancer research would be equal to the percentage of the U.S. population that is under 18 years old, as determined by the Census Bureau. This is intended to ensure that pediatric cancer research receives a fair share of federal cancer research funding.
