The federal government would be required to create a comprehensive national plan to tackle cancer in young adults, addressing prevention, research, and treatment strategies specific to this age group. The National Institutes of Health director would lead this effort to better understand why certain cancers affect younger people and how to improve their outcomes. This would help coordinate cancer research and care across the country for patients typically in their 20s, 30s, and 40s.
