J 2279 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Commemorating the 10th Anniversary of the We Dream in Black initiative of the National Domestic Workers Alliance

This Senate Resolution officially commemorates the 10th anniversary of the "We Dream in Black" initiative, a program by the National Domestic Workers Alliance that supports Black and Afro-descendant domestic workers. The measure formally acknowledges the group's historical role in advocating for labor rights and its success in helping workers recover unpaid wages and secure legal protections like paid leave. As a symbolic gesture, the bill directs the legislature to pause briefly to honor the organization's contributions and sends a copy of the resolution to the Alliance. No new laws or funding are created; the text serves solely to recognize past achievements and celebrate the milestone.
