Expressing support for the designation of the last Tuesday of April each year as "APOL1-Mediated Kidney Disease (AMKD) Awareness Day".

HRES 360 is a symbolic resolution designating the last Tuesday of April each year as "APOL1-Mediated Kidney Disease (AMKD) Awareness Day." It directly addresses health disparities affecting Black Americans, who are disproportionately impacted by AMKD - a rapidly progressive kidney disease linked to APOL1 gene variants (carried by an estimated 13% of Black Americans). The resolution encourages public awareness of AMKD, promotes genetic testing for at-risk individuals (particularly those with Western/Central African ancestry), and urges proactive health measures like regular doctor visits and healthy lifestyles. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new laws or allocate funds but aims to raise public and medical attention to this specific health disparity.
