Local Congressman Advocating Funding For Pediatric Cancer Legislation

September 25, 2023 by Julie Peters

While Congress is again going down to the wire on funding the federal government for the next fiscal year, Grimes County’s congressman spent part of last week engaged in what he considers the highlight of his career.

Michael McCaul talked on WTAW’s The Infomaniacs about his annual Childhood Cancer Summit. The event includes drafting legislation to provide federal money for clinical trials to benefit children with cancer.

McCaul says childhood cancer has been on his mind since his childhood best friend died from leukemia in the fourth grade.
