And, in 2017, President Trump named April 2nd 'World Autism Awareness Day', and illuminated the White House in blue that day, and each year since when he was President.

Pres. Trump said:

“On World Autism Awareness Day, we highlight the importance of addressing the causes and improving the treatments for autism spectrum disorders (ASDs),” Trump said in a statement. “We must continue our research to improve early identification and intervention, strengthen our comprehension of the disorder, and open opportunities for every member of our society to live independently and live the American Dream. My Administration is committed to promoting greater knowledge of ASDs and encouraging innovation that will lead to new treatments and cures for autism.”
