Commemorating Jubilee Day on June 1, 2025, honoring the legacy and perseverance of Prince Hall Shriners

This is a ceremonial Senate resolution (not a substantive bill), adopted on February 25, 2025. It formally commemorates "Jubilee Day" on June 1, 2025, to honor the legacy of Prince Hall Shriners following a 1929 Supreme Court ruling affirming their legal rights. The resolution directs the legislature to pause its work on that date to recognize the organization's century-long history of community service, including scholarship programs and medical aid. It specifically requests the legislature to transmit a copy of the resolution to Prince Hall Shriners leadership.
