The immense burden of headache disorders in America has been very rarely considered during the formal deliberations of Congress. On February 14, 2012, the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions of the United States Senate held a public hearing on Pain in America: Exploring Challenges to Relief. During that hearing, Senator Bernard Sanders of Vermont entered into the Congressional Record testimony on the impact of headache disorders on behalf of the Alliance for Headache Disorders Advocacy.
在美国，头痛疾病给人们带来的巨大负担，在国会的正式审议过程中，却很少被提及。2012 年 2 月 14 日，美国参议院卫生、教育、劳工和养老金委员会就“美国的疼痛：探索缓解疼痛的挑战”举行了公开听证会。在听证会上，佛蒙特州的伯纳德·桑德斯参议员代表头痛疾病倡导联盟，在国会记录中就头痛疾病对人们的影响作了证词。
