Recognizing September 27, 2026, as Gold Star Mother's and Family's Day, and honoring the sacrifices of the Gold Star family members from the State of New York

This bill designates September 27, 2026, as Gold Star Mother's and Family's Day to honor the sacrifices of families in New York whose service members died while in the military. It recognizes these families, who display Gold Star flags or wear lapel pins, as a tribute to their loved ones' ultimate sacrifice for the country. The resolution directs the state legislature to pause its work on this date and formally acknowledge the contributions of these families. A copy of the resolution will be sent to the affected Gold Star families in New York.
