Message on Senate action sent to the House.
This resolution expresses the sense of Congress that a National Dysphagia Awareness Month should be established. It does not create a law, a federal holiday, or provide funding; it is a formal statement of opinion and intent. As a concurrent resolution, it was adopted by both the House and Senate but is not sent to the President and does not have legal force. The stated purpose is to raise public awareness about dysphagia and encourage early detection and treatment.
Concurrent resolutions are adopted by both chambers and are not presented to the President; they do not have the force of law and are nonbinding.
This concurrent resolution expresses the sense of Congress that a National Dysphagia Awareness Month should be established.
It summarizes prevalence, mortality, and cost estimates related to dysphagia and states that observing June 2008 would raise public awareness.
The resolution is nonbinding and does not authorize funding or federal programs.
Very unlikely to 'become law' because it is a nonbinding concurrent resolution; high chance of adoption but not enactment as statutory law.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a conventional commemorative concurrent resolution that succinctly states facts about dysphagia and expresses Congress's view that a National Dysphagia Awareness Month should be established. It provides strong problem definition but little operational detail, which is typical for this type of instrument.
