The National Plan to End Parkinson’s Act has made significant progress, having passed unanimously in the U.S. Senate on May 23, 2024, after a strong bipartisan approval in the House in December 2023. This landmark legislation, supported by The Michael J. Fox Foundation and a coalition of advocates, aims to dramatically increase federal research funding, enhance early diagnosis, develop new treatment pathways, and address health disparities. The Parkinson’s community's tireless advocacy has been crucial in achieving this milestone, marking a hopeful step towards ending Parkinson’s disease.
