S. Res. 397 is a symbolic resolution expressing Senate support for designating September as "Dystonia Awareness Month." Dystonia is a neurological disorder causing involuntary muscle contractions that affect an estimated 250,000 to 300,000 Americans, though the actual number may be higher due to underdiagnosis. The condition can strike people of all ages and backgrounds, potentially impairing mobility, speech, and daily functioning, while causing physical disability, social isolation, and emotional distress. While there is no cure, treatments like botulinum toxin injections, medications, and deep brain stimulation can help manage symptoms. The resolution calls for increased public awareness and research to improve diagnosis, develop better treatments, and support patients and families—with particular attention to service members and veterans who may develop dystonia from traumatic brain injury or service-related conditions.
