This is a ceremonial Senate Resolution (not a bill) requesting Governor Hochul to issue a proclamation designating January 27, 2025, as Holocaust Remembrance Day in New York State. It does not create new laws or directly affect any individuals or groups; it simply asks the Governor to formally recognize the date. The resolution cites historical context about the Holocaust and the UN-designated International Holocaust Remembrance Day (observed on January 27) but contains no policy changes. It was adopted by the Senate on January 22, 2025.
