The bill, S. 381, is a Senate Resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly to officially recognize May 2025 as "Myositis Awareness Month" in the state. The resolution highlights the impact of myositis, a rare and chronic autoimmune disease that affects muscle function and can lead to severe health complications. It emphasizes the need for increased research, better diagnosis, and treatment options for those suffering from various forms of myositis, which disproportionately affects women and people of color.

The resolution also acknowledges the role of The Myositis Association (TMA) as a key advocacy organization dedicated to supporting individuals with myositis through education, research, and public awareness initiatives. By designating May 2025 as Myositis Awareness Month, the South Carolina Senate aims to raise awareness about this debilitating condition and the challenges faced by those affected by it.
