J 1648 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Commemorating the 27th Annual World Falun Dafa Day Celebration, to be observed May 13, 2026

This Senate Resolution (J 1648) is a ceremonial measure to commemorate the 27th Annual World Falun Dafa Day on May 13, 2026. It does not create new laws or affect any policies; instead, it formally recognizes the event and its significance to practitioners. The resolution specifically directs the New York State legislature to pause its work on that date and transmit copies of the resolution to Falun Dafa practitioners in New York State. It describes Falun Dafa as a practice focused on health and spiritual principles but does not implement any concrete policy changes.
