HR 498 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A Resolution designating September 25, 2026, as "Chuseok Day" in Pennsylvania.

This bill designates September 25, 2026, as "Chuseok Day" in Pennsylvania to honor the Korean harvest festival. The resolution acknowledges the cultural significance of Chuseok, which celebrates family, gratitude, and heritage, while recognizing the contributions of Korean Americans to the state. By officially recognizing this date, the measure aims to promote cultural diversity and civic engagement within the Commonwealth. This action serves as a commemorative gesture rather than establishing a new public holiday or altering existing laws.
