HR 249 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A Resolution designating the week of September 21 through 28, 2025, as "Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Research and Awareness Week" in Pennsylvania to increase awareness and understanding of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis to support improved diagnosis and treatment.

This resolution designates the week of September 21-28, 2025, as "Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Research and Awareness Week" in Pennsylvania. It directly affects Pennsylvanians by aiming to increase public awareness and understanding of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a serious lung disease, to support better diagnosis and treatment options. As a symbolic resolution, it does not include funding or regulatory changes but seeks to elevate focus on IPF through official recognition. The bill was referred to the Health committee and later laid on the table, halting further progress.
