A RESOLUTION recognizing the last day of February, the day connecting Black and Women's History Months, as a day to honor Black women.
HR 27 is a symbolic resolution introduced in the Kentucky House of Representatives that designates the last day of February (February 28) as a day to honor Black women. It recognizes Black women's historical contributions, leadership, and resilience through a series of "whereas" statements in the resolution text. The resolution does not create new laws, funding, or obligations; it merely urges Kentucky citizens to acknowledge and celebrate Black women's impact in their communities. This is a ceremonial measure with no binding policy effect, formally passed by the House to mark the intersection of Black History Month and Women's History Month.
