Johnny Isakson (R-GA)
Johnny Isakson is a Republican Senator from Georgia who serves on the HELP Committee. (US Senate, HELP Committee). Isakson is also a co-sponser of S.425 (National Neurological Diseases Surveillance System Act of 2011, 2011). Regarding the passing of a recent resolution that he introduced to officially make March 25, 2011 "National Cerebral Palsy Day," Isakson said, "I am very pleased to support this resolution that raises awareness for a disease that affects many families. I hope that Americans across the country will take time to educate themselves and others on cerebral palsy and show their support for the brave individuals who suffer from this disease” (johnnyisakson.com).
Based on the previous facts that Isakson co-sponsered this act and has also been involved in other pursuits for recognition of neurological disorders, it is reasonably assumed that he will vote FOR the National Neurological Diseases Surveillance System Act of 2011.
