  <Biography type="xhtml" UID="90596f3bfc69427f9f79d2727a8feaea" label="Biography" readonly="false" hidden="false" required="false" indexable="false" Height="" CIID="">&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.fightcancer.org" target="_blank" title="American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network" rel="noopener"&gt;The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN)&lt;/a&gt; advocates for evidence-based public policies to reduce the cancer burden for everyone. They engage their volunteers across the country to make their voices heard by policymakers at every level of government. They believe everyone should have a fair and just opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since 2001, as the American Cancer Society&amp;rsquo;s nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy affiliate, ACS CAN has successfully advocated for billions of dollars in cancer research funding, expanded access to quality affordable health care, and advanced proven tobacco control measures.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They stand with their volunteers&amp;mdash;people whose lives have been impacted by cancer&amp;mdash;rallying to demand change. Together, they are working to make cancer a top priority for public officials and candidates at the federal, state, and local levels. By engaging advocates across the country to make their voices heard, ACS CAN influences legislative and regulatory solutions that will end cancer as we know it, for everyone.&lt;/p&gt;</Biography>
