No change for most people — two House members back a kidney disease awareness month for September 2025
The details
Most people would see no change in daily life. This resolution backs September 2025 as National Polycystic Kidney Disease Awareness Month. That month has already passed. The resolution was introduced in the House and sent to a committee. A House resolution like this one states the House's views. It would not have the force of law. Polycystic kidney disease is a genetic disorder. It damages the kidneys and can harm other organs too. The resolution says about 600,000 people in the U.S. have it, and there is no cure. Almost half of people with it have kidney failure by age 60. The resolution says more research is needed to find a cure, but it does not pay for any. It asks people and groups to hold events that raise awareness of the disease.
