A senate RESOLUTION

TO HONOR CANCER PATIENTS, SURVIVORS, AND 
THEIR FAMILIES, REMEMBER THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN LOST TO CANCER, AND RECOGNIZE 
March 4, 2026, AS "Suits and Sneakers DAY" IN SOUTH CAROLINA.

Whereas, Suits 
and Sneakers is a collaboration between the American Cancer Society and the 
American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network leveraging the personal 
experiences, community leadership, and professional excellence of coaches 
nationwide to increase cancer awareness and promote healthy living through 
year-round awareness efforts, fundraising activities, and advocacy programs; 
and

Whereas, the 
American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network empowers advocates across the 
State to make their voices heard and influence evidence-based public policy 
change that will reduce the cancer burden on our State; and

Whereas, it is 
estimated that more than thirty-six thousand South Carolinians will be 
diagnosed with cancer in 2026; and

Whereas, cancer 
patients face countless challenges associated with their diagnoses, including 
physical, emotional, financial, and day-to-day challenges; and

Whereas, South 
Carolina continues to navigate through tough legislation, it is more important 
than ever to support efforts to combat cancer; and

Whereas, not 
only will policies to prevent, detect, and treat cancer and save countless 
lives, they will significantly reduce the financial strain that this disease 
places on South Carolinians and our great State; and

Whereas, the 
American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network would like to recognize all 
cancer survivors, caregivers, and advocates. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by 
the Senate:

That the members 
of the South Carolina Senate, by this 
resolution, honor cancer patients, survivors, and their families, remember 
those who have been lost to cancer, and recognize March 4, 2026 as "Suits and 
Sneakers Day" in South Carolina.
