Bill Summary
For legislation to designate June 7 as Tourette Syndrome Awareness Day. State Administration and Regulatory Oversight.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Chapter 6 of the Massachusetts General Laws by adding a new section that requires the governor to annually issue a proclamation designating June 7 as Tourette Syndrome Awareness Day. Specifically, the governor would be tasked with setting apart this date and recommending that the people of Massachusetts observe the day in an appropriate manner. Tourette Syndrome is a neurological disorder characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics. By establishing this awareness day, the bill aims to increase public understanding and recognition of Tourette Syndrome, helping to reduce stigma and promote education about the condition.
