Expressing support for the designation of May 2025 as "National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month".

This resolution expresses support for designating May 2025 as "National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month" to raise public awareness about these prevalent health conditions. It highlights that nearly 28 million Americans have asthma, causing millions of missed school and work days, and that 20.3 million people, including 4.3 million children, experience food allergies. The resolution notes the significant economic cost of asthma and its disproportionate burden on Black, Hispanic, and Indigenous individuals . Despite being manageable, asthma led to over 3,500 deaths in 2021, emphasizing the importance of prevention and awareness. Therefore, the House of Representatives recognizes this designation and encourages the American people to observe the month with appropriate activities.
