PROCLAIMING OCTOBER 28, 2026, AS “NATIONAL FIRST RESPONDERS DAY” IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE.

This bill designates October 28, 2026, as "National First Responders Day" within the State of Delaware.

The key mechanism is a formal declaration passed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives. This action serves as a commemorative resolution rather than establishing new laws or funding.
