A recent poll by the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network - ACS CAN shows 83% of Ohio voters believe all Americans, regardless of the type of health insurance they have, should have access to affordable cancer screening and treatment close to home. Further, nearly all (91%) believe that healthcare policies should make it easier—not harder—for people to get care.

Conducted by Lake Research Partners and the Tarrance Group, this poll is a part of ACS CAN’s national campaign—the country’s leading voter education program for cancer-related issues and policies.
