SR 100 Louisiana Senate · 2026 Regular Session

SPECIAL DAY/WEEK/MONTH: Designates May 2026, as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Awareness Month.

This bill designates May 2026 as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Awareness Month in Louisiana. The resolution aims to increase public knowledge about ALS, a fatal neurodegenerative disease that affects muscle control and impacts both civilians and military veterans. By officially recognizing this month, the legislature intends to highlight the challenges faced by patients and their families while supporting ongoing research efforts. The measure is non-binding and serves primarily as a symbolic gesture to draw attention to the disease rather than implementing new laws or funding.

MINOR

The bill was transitioned from its original draft to its enrolled, final version. The substantive policy content regarding the designation of May 2026 as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Awareness Month and the supporting WHEREAS clauses remained unchanged. The primary changes are technical, involving the removal of internal legislative tracking numbers, the deletion of a non-binding digest section, and the addition of the presiding officer's title to finalize the document.

TECHNICAL

Removed internal legislative tracking identifiers (e.g., SLS 26RS-1083) and page headers used during the drafting process.

Deleted the 'DIGEST' section, which is a non-binding summary prepared by legislative services and does not constitute law.

Added the title 'PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE' to the final page to indicate official approval.
