Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 28, 2025, as World Hunger Day in the State of New York

This resolution requests Governor Hochul to proclaim May 28, 2025, as World Hunger Day in New York State, raising awareness about food insecurity. It highlights that over 2.6 million New Yorkers - 1 in 8 people, including 1 in 5 children - are food insecure, with 91,897 experiencing homelessness daily. The resolution emphasizes the state's commitment to supporting food pantries, shelters, and holistic solutions to end hunger. As a procedural resolution, it does not create new laws but urges the Governor to issue a formal proclamation.
