HR 546 Georgia House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Myositis Awareness Month; May 2025; recognize

HR 546 is a symbolic resolution recognizing May 2025 as Myositis Awareness Month. It does not create new laws or allocate funding but aims to raise public awareness about myositis, a rare autoimmune muscle disease affecting people with symptoms like muscle weakness, pain, and fatigue. The resolution highlights challenges such as delayed diagnosis, limited specialist access, and health disparities for women and people of color with the condition. It specifically calls for recognition through the Georgia House of Representatives, directing the Clerk to distribute copies to the public and press. This resolution directly affects individuals living with myositis and the broader rare disease community.
