Resolution 456 submitted by Representative Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and Representative Brownley provides an up-to-date universal definition of dyslexia.

It urges the House of Representatives to call upon schools along with state and local educational agencies to address the implications that dyslexia has on a student's education.

We need more schools to embrace and replicate this model so that students can achieve their fullest potential.

Over 80 members of Congress have joined the bipartisan Congressional Dyslexia Caucus co-chaired by Rep. Bill Cassidy and Science Committee member Julia Brownley.

We need to unleash the intelligence of people with dyslexia, like Einstein, da Vinci, Carol Greider, and John Chambers.

The purpose of the caucus is to educate other Members of Congress and advance policies, to break down barriers faced by dyslexics.

Greater strides need to be made in ensuring that every dyslexic child and adult has a chance to read, to learn, to demonstrate and to realize his or her full potential.

It is our hope hearing the depth and breadth of the scientific knowledge of dyslexia will alert policymakers to act and to act with a sense of urgency.
