A RESOLUTION adjourning the Senate in honor and loving memory of Father Norman Anthony Fischer, Jr.
SR 9 is a commemorative resolution honoring Father Norman Anthony Fischer, Jr., a Lexington priest who served Catholic communities for over 18 years and was the first Afro-Asian president of the National Black Catholic Clergy Caucus. The resolution adjourns the Kentucky Senate in his memory, expresses the Senate's sympathy for his passing, and directs the Clerk to deliver a copy to his family. It does not create new laws or policies but formally recognizes his contributions to racial healing, youth ministry, and community leadership in Lexington. This procedural resolution affects the Senate's proceedings and the Fischer family, with no broader legislative impact.
