What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "PREVENT HPV Cancers Act of 2025," aims to amend the Public Health Service Act to establish a national public awareness campaign regarding the human papillomavirus (HPV). The campaign is directed to increase vaccination rates, combat misinformation, and raise awareness about preventing HPV-associated cancers. It requires the Secretary, through the CDC, to develop culturally and linguistically competent resources for various high-risk and underserved communities. Additionally, the bill updates the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program. It authorizes significant funding for the public awareness campaign and increases annual funding for the cancer early detection program through 2030.
