Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim September 2026, as Sepsis Awareness Month in the State of New York

This bill asks Governor Kathy Hochul to officially declare September 2026 as Sepsis Awareness Month in New York. The resolution aims to raise public awareness about sepsis, a serious infection that can lead to organ failure and death if not treated quickly. By designating this month, the state hopes to encourage education, early detection, and support for those affected by the condition. The bill does not create new laws or funding but serves as a formal recognition to highlight the importance of sepsis prevention and care.
