HRES 1590 United States House · 118th Congress

Expressing support for the designation of November 20, 2024, as "Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Awareness Day".

HRES 1590 is a symbolic resolution expressing congressional support for designating November 20, 2024, as "Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Awareness Day." It references CDC data showing over 400 annual deaths and 20,000 emergency visits from carbon monoxide poisoning, and honors Suzan Hanna, a New Jersey resident who died from CO poisoning in 2021. The resolution does not create new laws or requirements but aims to raise public awareness about the dangers of carbon monoxide, which is odorless and can build up in enclosed spaces from fuel-burning devices like vehicles and heaters. It was introduced by Representative Kean of New Jersey and referred to the Oversight Committee.
