Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim January 2025, as Thyroid Disease Awareness Month in the State of New

This resolution requests Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim January 2025 as Thyroid Disease Awareness Month in New York State. It highlights the high prevalence of thyroid disease - including approximately 3,100 women and 1,000 men diagnosed with thyroid cancer annually in New York - to encourage public awareness and early recognition of symptoms. The resolution does not create new laws but aims to elevate community education about a condition affecting millions nationwide.
