AN ACT DESIGNATING LOCAL JOURNALISM APPRECIATION DAY.
HB 6038 designates the first Wednesday in May of each year as "Local Journalism Appreciation Day" in state law. This symbolic measure aims to raise public awareness of the value of local journalism. The bill directly affects the public by establishing an annual day for recognizing local news media's role in communities. It does not create new funding, regulations, or policy changes - only formally names a recurring observance.
