Physical exams and blood tests are a primary means of diagnosing the disease, and all men should discuss this matter with their physicians to determine the best course for them, particularly men who are most at risk. Again, I want to thank Representative Neugebauer from Texas for his work on the resolution, which calls for an increase in awareness of the screening methods and treatments of prostate cancer and continued research into the causes and potential cures. Mr. Speaker, as a cosponsor of this resolution, I urge Members to support H. Res. 1485.
