Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 25, 2025, as Missing Children's Day in the State of New York
This is a ceremonial resolution (not a bill) requesting Governor Hochul to issue a proclamation designating May 25, 2025, as "Missing Children's Day" in New York State. It does not create new laws or policies - it simply asks the Governor to recognize the existing national observance of Missing Children's Day (established in honor of Etan Patz and observed since 1983). The resolution cites statistics about missing children cases and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) to support the request. It directly affects no specific group beyond encouraging state-level recognition of an existing national observance.
