Capito Helps Introduce Bipartisan Resolution Recognizing National Concussion Awareness Day
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senators Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.), Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), and Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) are recognizing today, Friday, September 19, as National Concussion Awareness Day.
“Concussions adversely affect far too many individuals in West Virginia and across our country,” Senator Capito said. “Enhancing concussion prevention and increasing awareness, in addition to proper diagnosis and management, are essential for athletes, coaches, parents, and others to play sports and work safely. I’m proud to join my colleagues on this resolution and I hope it amplifies the need for continued concussion prevention, safety, and treatment.”
The resolution recognizes September 19, 2025, as National Concussion Awareness Day, commends organizations that raise awareness about concussions, and encourages further research and prevention efforts.
