This resolution states that the House of Representatives supports designating November 20, 2026, as "Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Awareness Day." It describes carbon monoxide as an odorless, colorless gas produced when fuel is burned, and cites federal figures of over 400 deaths and 20,000 emergency room visits from carbon monoxide poisoning each year. It recognizes Suzan "Suzie" Marie Hanna of New Jersey, who died of carbon monoxide poisoning in 2021, and her family's effort to encourage drivers to carry a safety hammer in their vehicles. The resolution does not create new laws, rules, or spending.
