Relative to Lupus Awareness Month.

This Senate resolution officially designates May 2026 as Lupus Awareness Month in California to highlight the chronic autoimmune disease that affects 1.5 million people in the United States. The bill specifically commends the California Lupus Foundation for its long-standing efforts in providing support, education, and medical care resources to patients and their families. By recognizing the foundation's leadership, the resolution aims to increase public understanding of the disease's symptoms and the importance of early diagnosis. This measure serves as a symbolic gesture rather than establishing new laws or funding requirements.
