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. The proclamation would recommend that the people of Massachusetts observe the day in an appropriate manner, with the goal of increasing public understanding and awareness of Tourette Syndrome, a neurological disorder characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics. By establishing this official day of recognition, the bill aims to promote education, reduce stigma, and support individuals and families affected by Tourette Syndrome.
