I’ve been a lot of things in my life, John — an actor, an activist, a troublemaker. But I never expected to add cancer survivor to that list.

In 2022, I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Months of chemotherapy. Countless doctor visits. Some very hard days. I survived because of great doctors and decades of scientific research that led to the treatments that saved my life.

Now, Donald Trump is systematically destroying that same research, and I refuse to stay silent.

Trump decided that American cancer research was somehow too “woke,” so he paused NIH grant-making for over two months, blocking $1.5 billion in funding and effectively halting clinical trials that patients desperately need to survive.

Here’s what his war on “woke” science has already cost us:

- More than 240 cancer-related NIH grants terminated (representing an estimated $355 million in lost funding)
- $35 million in VA cancer research thrown into jeopardy
- $420 million slashed from Defense Department medical research, including breast and ovarian cancer studies

And it’s not just that they're cutting vital research. Trump officials are maintaining a hit list of keywords that trigger grant terminations — words like “trans,” “diverse,” “women,” and “expression.”

Think about that, John. Cancer researchers have lost life-saving grants because of Trump’s hateful anti-DEI crusade. It’s despicable.

But that’s exactly why I’m staying in the fight.

Cancer made me think even more about the time I have left and how I want to use it. I don’t want to look back with regrets. I want to know that I did everything in my power to fight for the future — for our health and for the generations that come after us.

At JanePAC, we’re building the strongest possible defense by electing bold leaders in key districts where we can actually move the needle — leaders who believe in science and will fight like hell to protect our health and our planet.

But we can’t do this work without your help, John. We’re up against Big Oil’s super PACs and an entire MAGA machine that has already proven they will put lives at risk to push their deadly agenda. So when I say it’s now or never, I mean it. Will you help us continue this fight with a grassroots contribution today? [[link removed]]
