This resolution officially recognizes May 2025 as "ALS Awareness Month" to increase public understanding of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a serious neurological disease that gradually weakens muscles and affects people's ability to move, speak, and breathe. The designation encourages awareness campaigns and education about ALS, which impacts patients, their families, and caregivers who deal with the disease's progressive effects. The Senate has already approved this resolution unanimously.
