Expressing support for the designation of September 2025 as "National Polycystic Kidney Disease Awareness Month", and raising awareness and understanding of polycystic kidney disease.
HRES 699 is a symbolic resolution designating September 2025 as "National Polycystic Kidney Disease Awareness Month" to raise public awareness about polycystic kidney disease (PKD). It directly affects the approximately 600,000 people in the U.S. living with PKD, a genetic condition causing kidney damage and other organ complications. The resolution expresses congressional support for this designation and encourages public efforts to increase understanding of PKD’s impact on patients and families. It does not create new laws or funding but aims to foster greater recognition of PKD as a leading cause of kidney failure. The resolution aligns with the PKD Foundation’s goals of promoting research, education, and awareness.
