The House Resolution No. aims to declare March 9-15, 2025, as Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Week in Michigan. It highlights the impact of multiple sclerosis (MS), a neurological disease affecting nearly one million people in the U.S., particularly those aged 20 to 50. The resolution emphasizes the ongoing efforts of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, which has invested over $1 billion in research to find a cure and improve the lives of those affected by MS. It also acknowledges the support provided by local MS leaders and the importance of community in addressing the challenges posed by the disease. The resolution calls on Michiganders to recognize the significance of MS awareness and encourages citizens to educate themselves about the condition and support individuals and families impacted by MS. By designating this week, the House of Representatives aims to foster greater public understanding and engagement in the fight against MS, reinforcing the state's commitment to finding a cure and supporting those affected by the disease.
