Designate Food Allergy Awareness Month

This bill designates the month of May as "Food Allergy Awareness Month" to highlight the importance of recognizing food allergies.

It does not change laws, allocate funding, or mandate specific actions for individuals or businesses. The measure serves as a commemorative resolution rather than a substantive policy change.
