K 1100 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 26, 2026, as Purple Day in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially recognize March 26, 2026, as Purple Day in the state. The resolution aims to raise awareness about epilepsy, a neurological condition that causes seizures and affects millions of people worldwide. Purple Day is an annual observance where people wear purple to show support and help reduce stigma surrounding epilepsy. The bill does not change any laws or create new programs; it simply directs the Governor to issue a proclamation acknowledging this health awareness day.
