Commending Prince Hall upon the occasion of hosting its Black History Month Observance on February 19, 2026

This is a ceremonial Senate Resolution (J 1572), not a law. It formally commends Prince Hall Freemasonry for hosting its Black History Month Observance on February 19, 2026, in New York. The resolution expresses the legislature's appreciation for Prince Hall's historical role in African American community leadership, its 1775 founding, and its ongoing contributions to education and civic advancement through the Grand Lodge of New York. It has no policy impact - it is solely a symbolic gesture of recognition.
