Steve Daines said "Mr. President, I am glad to introduce a resolution to designate May 2018 ``National Brain Tumor Awareness Month.'' It is my hope that this resolution will show our support for the patients battling brain tumors, as well as their families, and friends who fight alongside them. It is estimated that 78,980 new cases of primary and non-malignant tumors in the brain and central nervous system will be diagnosed and 16,616 people in the United States will lose their battle with a primary brain tumor this year alone. This resolution will increase public awareness and honor those who have suffered, or are suffering from a brain tumor, while encouraging researchers to redouble their efforts in the search for a cure. I thank Senator Markey and our bipartisan colleagues for their support for this important cause. ___________________
