About 35 percent of American adults regularly get less than the seven hours of sleep per night recommended by the CDC, and a 2025 National Sleep Foundation poll found that 60 percent of Americans say they don't consistently get enough sleep. Chronic sleep deprivation increases the risk of diabetes, stroke, heart disease, depression, and accidents, and research shows Black Americans are disproportionately affected by poor sleep quality. This resolution supports designating the week of March 9–15, 2025, as Sleep Awareness Week and encourages Americans to prioritize sleep health and discuss it with their healthcare providers.
