K 250 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 6, 2025, as Missing Persons Day in the State of New York

This resolution requests Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 6, 2025, as Missing Persons Day in New York State. It aims to raise public awareness about the impact of missing persons cases, referencing Suzanne Lyall - a University at Albany student who has been missing since 1998 - and noting that thousands of people, including many adults, are reported missing in New York. The resolution does not create new laws or policies but serves as a symbolic gesture to honor affected families and communities. It follows existing state efforts like "Suzanne's Law" and campus safety legislation, focusing on recognition rather than regulatory change.
