Key Points

The Senate officially named September 2025 as National Cholesterol Education Month. They also named September 30, 2025, as a day to focus on a specific type of bad cholesterol called LDL-C.
This move aims to help people understand their risk for heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in the United States. It encourages everyone to get their cholesterol levels tested by a doctor.
The resolution highlights that many people do not get the follow-up tests they need after a heart attack. It also notes that people living in rural areas are 40 percent more likely to have heart disease.
By raising awareness, the Senate hopes to help more people reach healthy cholesterol levels. Currently, only about one third of people taking common cholesterol drugs actually reach their health goals.
