A Resolution designating the month of July 2025 as "Disability Pride Month" in Pennsylvania.

The resolution aims to reduce stigma and promote inclusivity by highlighting the contributions of Pennsylvanians with disabilities, as noted in the bill's references to statewide disability statistics. As a ceremonial resolution, it has no legal effect beyond official recognition and does not directly impact specific groups or services.
