Introduced

Summary

This resolution endorses Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month in June and urges Americans to support research, care, and caregivers. It notes nearly 7 million Americans live with Alzheimer’s now and that could grow to 13 million by 2050. The resolution cites $384 billion in 2025 care costs. It highlights heavy unpaid caregiving with over 11 million caregivers, about 70 percent reporting high emotional stress and about 40 percent reporting depressive symptoms. It also notes that almost two thirds of people with Alzheimer’s are women and that older Black Americans face nearly twice the risk while older Latinos face about 1.5 times the risk.
