SCR 28 Delaware Senate · 153rd General Assembly (2025-2026)

RECOGNIZING THE MONTH OF MARCH 2025 AS “KIDNEY MONTH” IN DELAWARE.

SCR 28 is a symbolic resolution recognizing March 2025 as "Kidney Month" in Delaware. It does not create new laws or funding but aims to raise public awareness about kidney disease, which affects approximately 2,698 Delaware residents with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and highlights the state's 152 people on kidney transplant waiting lists. The resolution emphasizes the importance of early detection through screenings and healthy lifestyle choices like balanced diets and hydration. It was introduced by Senator Poore and passed unanimously by both legislative chambers in March 2025. This resolution serves as a public health awareness tool, not a policy change.
