Tourette Syndrome Awareness Day Recognition Act of 2026

Recognize Tourette Syndrome Awareness Day on June 7, 2026, to increase public awareness and understanding of Tourette Syndrome.

Constitutional concerns with the original

This solution records no specific constitutional concern with the original action. Review the original text and cited provisions for legal analysis.

Solution text

The Congress finds that Tourette Syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder affecting approximately 1 in 162 children in the United States, and that increased public awareness reduces stigma and improves quality of life for affected individuals. The Congress designates June 7, 2026, as 'Tourette Syndrome Awareness Day' and encourages the people of the United States to observe the day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities that promote understanding and support for individuals with Tourette Syndrome. This designation is an expression of sentiment by the Congress and does not authorize the expenditure of any appropriated funds. The National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are authorized to issue informational materials consistent with this resolution, subject to existing appropriations. This resolution shall expire on December 31, 2026.

Operative provisions

funding source
No new funding — existing appropriations of NIH and CDC may be used for informational materials.
funding amount
$0 — any costs must be absorbed within current budgets.
sunset years
1
oversight body
House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform (for informational materials review upon request).
enforcement mechanism
No enforcement required — this is a ceremonial designation; misuse of official seals would be subject to existing 18 U.S.C. § 1017 penalties.
effective date
Date of enactment.

Bipartisan rationale

Democratic priorities: Supports health awareness, destigmatization of neurological conditions, and public education. Republican priorities: Constrained spending (no new appropriations), minimal federal role, respects federalism by not mandating state or private action.
