Bill > HR0039

This resolution declares March 9-15, 2025, as Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Week in Michigan, recognizing the significant impact of multiple sclerosis (MS), a neurological disease affecting nearly one million people in the United States. The resolution highlights that MS typically affects individuals between ages 20 and 50, with no known cause or cure, and emphasizes the important work of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, which has invested over $1 billion in research since 1946. The resolution acknowledges the society's mission to find a cure while empowering those affected by MS, and notes the presence of eighteen in-person MS support groups in Michigan. By issuing this resolution, the Michigan House of Representatives aims to raise awareness about MS, honor the efforts of researchers and support organizations, and encourage citizens to learn more about the disease and support individuals and families impacted by MS.
