This resolution advocates for the designation of January 30, 2025, as CTE (chronic traumatic encephalopathy) and RHI (repeated head impacts) Awareness Day . It highlights CTE as a progressive degenerative brain disease linked to repeated head injuries, a causal connection formally acknowledged by the National Institutes of Health. The resolution notes that RHI can damage developing brains and that CTE involves the buildup of an abnormal protein, tau, leading to brain atrophy and symptoms similar to other neurodegenerative diseases. The House of Representatives supports this designation to recognize researchers, those suffering from CTE and RHI symptoms, and their caregivers. It encourages the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to publish educational materials and inform the public about symptoms and contributing factors. The resolution also urges people across the United States to observe the day with activities promoting awareness of these serious conditions.
