This resolution officially designates the week of March 8 through 14, 2026, as "Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Week" in Pennsylvania. The resolution highlights that Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a serious neurological disease affecting the central nervous system, impacting millions globally and over 24,000 people in Pennsylvania, often striking young adults between 20 and 50 years old with no known cause or cure. It acknowledges the long-standing commitment of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, including its Pennsylvania chapters, to research, raise public awareness, and ultimately find a cure for MS, having invested over $1 billion in research and funding numerous projects. The resolution encourages all Pennsylvanians to support the mission to stop MS, restore what has been lost, and end the disease forever.
