Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim November 29, 2025, as Palestinian American Day in the State of New York
This resolution (Assembly Resolution 640) asks Governor Hochul to officially designate November 29, 2025, as "Palestinian American Day" in New York State. It does not create new laws or policies but requests a ceremonial recognition of Palestinian American contributions to New York's cultural, economic, and civic life. The resolution specifically highlights their community presence in areas like Brooklyn ("Little Palestine"), business ownership, academic work, and advocacy efforts. It is a procedural request awaiting the Governor's action.
