Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 15, 2025, as Stiff Person Syndrome Awareness Day in the State of New York
This is a ceremonial Senate resolution (not a bill) requesting Governor Hochul to issue a proclamation designating March 15, 2025, as Stiff Person Syndrome Awareness Day in New York State. It directly affects the Governor's office and aims to increase public awareness of Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare neurological condition causing muscle stiffness and spasms. The resolution has no policy or funding provisions - it solely asks the Governor to formally recognize the day, following established legislative tradition for health awareness observances.
