Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.

2026-04-20

This resolution would officially designate May as "National Myositis Awareness Month" to help raise public attention about myositis, a group of rare diseases that cause muscle inflammation and weakness. The designation would encourage healthcare providers, patient advocacy groups, and the public to learn more about these conditions and support those living with them. While the resolution itself doesn't create new programs or funding, it aims to increase awareness of diseases that affect a relatively small but vulnerable population.
