Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 21, 2026, as Forest Day in the State of New York
This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially recognize March 21, 2026, as Forest Day in the state. It directly affects the Governor's office and the Empire State Forest Products Association, which receives copies of the resolution. The measure is a ceremonial proclamation that aligns with the United Nations International Day of Forests to raise awareness about the importance of forests. It does not create new laws or change any policies but serves as a symbolic acknowledgment of forests' environmental and economic value.
