Expressing support for the designation of the week of May 3, 2026, through May 9, 2026, as "Tardive Dyskinesia Awareness Week".
This resolution expresses support for designating the week of May 3 through May 9, 2026, as Tardive Dyskinesia Awareness Week. It aims to increase public understanding of tardive dyskinesia, a movement disorder that can affect people taking long-term medications for mental health or gastrointestinal issues. The bill encourages individuals across the United States to learn more about the condition, which impacts approximately 600,000 people but often goes undiagnosed. By raising awareness, the House hopes to promote better monitoring and treatment for those living with this condition.
