Bill > LD254

This bill designates November as Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month in the state of Maine. Specifically, the legislation adds a new section (§150-V) to Maine Revised Statutes Annotated (MRSA) that officially recognizes November as a month dedicated to raising awareness about pancreatic cancer. The bill requires the Governor to issue an annual proclamation each year, encouraging people throughout the state to participate in appropriate activities that promote understanding and awareness of pancreatic cancer. By creating this official designation, the bill aims to draw public attention to this serious disease, potentially increasing education, support for research, and community engagement around pancreatic cancer.
