K 721 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim June 2025, as Caribbean Heritage Month in the State of New York

This is a ceremonial resolution, not a substantive bill. It requests Governor Kathy Hochul to issue a formal proclamation designating June 2025 as Caribbean Heritage Month in New York State, aligning with the existing National Caribbean Heritage Month observance. The resolution recognizes the cultural contributions of Caribbean communities to New York and the nation, referencing the U.S. House's 2005 adoption of the month-long observance. It has no direct impact on laws, policies, or individuals, as it solely seeks symbolic recognition.
