A resolution calling on Congress, schools, and State and local educational agencies to recognize the significant educational implications of dyslexia that must be addressed, and designating October 2025 as "National Dyslexia Awareness Month".

S.Res. 471 is a non-binding resolution that would call on Congress, schools, and state and local educational agencies to recognize the significant educational implications of dyslexia and the need to address it. The resolution also proposes to designate October 2025 as National Dyslexia Awareness Month to increase public awareness about dyslexia.

As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. If passed, it would serve as a statement of congressional intent and support for dyslexia awareness and education efforts, but would not create any binding requirements or funding. The practical impact would be primarily symbolic, encouraging educational institutions and policymakers to focus attention on dyslexia-related educational challenges and interventions.
