Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 2026, as Dominican Heritage Month in the State of New York

This resolution memorializes Governor Hochul to proclaim February 2026 as Dominican Heritage Month in New York State, coinciding with the 182nd anniversary of Dominican Independence. It recognizes Dominicans as New York's largest immigrant group (over 1 million residents in the state) and highlights their cultural, economic, and social contributions to the state. The resolution does not create new laws but encourages state-wide celebration of Dominican heritage through public events and recognition.
