A Resolution recognizing August 31, 2026, as "Overdose Awareness Day" in Pennsylvania.
This Senate Resolution designates August 31, 2026, as "Overdose Awareness Day" throughout Pennsylvania to raise awareness about drug overdoses and reduce the stigma associated with them. The bill does not create new laws or change regulations but instead asks the Governor to issue a proclamation and order flags to be flown at half-staff on that date. Its primary effect is symbolic, aiming to honor those affected by overdose and encourage community support for individuals struggling with addiction.
