#GENIUSActPass The passage of the GENIUS Act marks a critical step forward in the fight against stroke, especially among underserved and at-risk communities. By empowering the CDC to fund and coordinate comprehensive stroke research, the Act aims to close knowledge gaps and improve outcomes through targeted prevention, education, and data-driven solutions. Its focus on addressing racial, ethnic, and geographic disparities reflects a strong commitment to health equity. As strokes remain a leading cause of death and disability, the GENIUS Act has the potential to save lives and enhance quality of care across the nation. This is public health progress in action.
