 ,ryan submitted the following          
resolution2 which was referred to the   
,committee on ,oversight and ,reform    
,,resolution  ,expressing support for   
designation of ,may #cj as ,national    
,bartter ,syndrome ,day4  ,whereas      
,bartter syndrome is a rare kidney      
condition that causes an imbalance of   
potassium1 sodium1 chloride1 and other  
molecules in the body2 ,whereas the     
antenatal form of ,bartter syndrome1    
which begins before birth1 is often     
life-threatening and is characterized by
 abnormally high levels of amniotic     
fluid surrounding the affected fetus1   
premature delivery1 and salt loss2      
,whereas the classical form of ,bartter 
syndrome1 which begins in early         
childhood and tends to be less severe1  
causes individuals to experience        
fatigue1 muscle weakness1 growth delay1 
and developmental delay2 ,whereas       

,bartter syndrome likely affects        
approximately one per million people    
worldwide1 although the exact prevalence
 is unknown2 ,whereas increased         
awareness and research of ,bartter      
syndrome will promote accurate and early
 recognition of the disorder and help   
families with children suffering from   
this condition cope with the associated 
difficulties2 and ,whereas ,may #cj     
would be an appropriate date to         
designate as ,national ,bartter         
,syndrome ,day3 ,now1 therefore1 be it  
,that the ,house of ,representatives    
supports the designation of ,national   
,bartter ,syndrome ,day4
