Summary
Recognize Sjogren's disease as a serious, systemic autoimmune disease and boost awareness. The resolution would note that up to 4 million U.S. adults live with Sjogren's and that symptoms include profound fatigue, widespread dryness, and pain. It would call for federal agencies to expand research through the Office of Autoimmune Disease Research, improve tracking and provider training, and update public information. It would support designating April 2025 as Sjogren's Awareness Month to help earlier diagnosis and better care.
