HB 252 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Designates several new state holidays

HB 252 designates three new state observances in Missouri: June as "Immigrant Heritage Month," October 2nd as "Wrongful Conviction Day," and December 1st as "Freeman Bosley, Sr. Day." The bill does not create new legal requirements or programs but formally names these dates for public recognition. It encourages Missourians to participate in events celebrating immigrant contributions (June), raising awareness about wrongful convictions (October 2nd), and honoring a retired St. Louis politician (December 1st). The designation applies to all Missouri residents and state entities through these named observances.
