  Whereas, lung cancer is a devastating disease that impacts individuals and families in South Carolina;
and   Whereas, anyone can develop lung cancer.
About six out of ten people newly diagnosed with lung cancer have never smoked or have quit smoking and have developed lung cancer from exposure to radon, secondhand smoke, asbestos, chemicals, radiation, air pollution, gene mutations, or other means, rather than from smoking;
and   Whereas, lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in South Carolina;
and   Whereas, South Carolina's lung cancer incidence rate is higher than the national rate;
and   Whereas, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in South Carolina;
and   Whereas, South Carolina's lung cancer mortality rate is higher than the national rate;
and   Whereas, increased awareness of lung cancer, lung cancer screening, and lung cancer biomarker testing can significantly reduce South Carolina's lung cancer mortality rate.
Now, therefore,   Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
  That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, declare November 2026 as "Lung Cancer Awareness Month" in South Carolina.
  Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Governor Henry McMaster of South Carolina.
