A concurrent resolution calling for a national commitment to cure and control cancer within this decade.

Summary

Makes it the sense of the Congress that: (1) not less than $650,000,000 be appropriated annually over the next ten fiscal years for the national cancer research program; (2) not less than $250,000,000 of this appropriation be utilized to construct five new cancer research institutes in the United States during the first two years of the new appropriations; and (3) the funds thus appropriated be controlled and directed by a National Cancer Authority which would have the same absolute direction of the cure and control of cancer that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has over our conquest of space.
