This resolution officially designates September 2025 as "National Cholesterol Education Month" and September 30, 2025 , as "LDL-C Awareness Day." Its primary goal is to encourage all individuals in the United States to understand their low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) number. The Senate also recognizes the critical need for increased screening and effective treatment of elevated LDL-C levels to mitigate the risk of cardiovascular disease and associated events like heart attacks and strokes. Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in the U.S., with elevated LDL-C being a significant and modifiable risk factor. Despite existing resources and clinical guidelines, a substantial percentage of high-risk patients do not achieve recommended LDL-C treatment thresholds, and many do not receive necessary post-event testing. This resolution highlights these gaps in care, particularly among certain demographics, underscoring the importance of awareness and proactive management to improve public health outcomes.
