Resolution; observing the long friendship between Oklahoma and Ireland, commemorating St. Patrick's Day on March 17.

This resolution (SR 6) is a ceremonial measure recognizing Oklahoma's historical ties with Ireland and commemorating St. Patrick's Day. It formally observes Oklahoma's long-standing friendship with Ireland - including the Choctaw Nation's 19th-century aid to Ireland during the famine - and acknowledges Ireland's diplomatic and economic connections to Oklahoma. The resolution directs the Oklahoma Senate to commemorate March 17 as St. Patrick's Day and distribute copies to Ireland's Senate Chair and Oklahoma's American Irish State Legislators Caucus. It contains no new policy, funding, or binding obligations, serving solely as symbolic recognition of cultural and historical bonds.
