Designate Black Ohioan Civil War Medal of Honor Recipient Day

SB 253 designates February 20th as "Black Ohioan Civil War Medal of Honor Recipient Day" to commemorate a specific Black Ohioan who earned the Medal of Honor during the Civil War. The bill creates a formal, annual observance date in Ohio to honor this individual's military service and sacrifice. It does not create new laws, funding, or direct obligations, but rather establishes a ceremonial day of recognition. This designation applies statewide and aims to acknowledge a historically significant figure in Ohio's military history.
