J 214 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 29, 2025, as Eid al-Fitr Day in the State of New York

Senate Resolution J 214 requests Governor Hochul to officially recognize March 29, 2025, as Eid al-Fitr Day in New York State. It does not create new laws or policies but asks the Governor to issue a ceremonial proclamation acknowledging this Muslim holiday, which marks the end of Ramadan. The resolution is directed at the Governor and aims to formally recognize the religious observance for New York's Muslim community. This is a symbolic gesture with no binding legal effect, as it only requests the Governor's voluntary action.
