A Resolution recognizing May 13, 2026, as "Gold Shield Family Day" in Pennsylvania to acknowledge the families of fallen first responders.

This bill designates May 13, 2026, as "Gold Shield Family Day" throughout Pennsylvania to honor the families of first responders who have died in the line of duty. The resolution directly affects the relatives of fallen police officers, firefighters, emergency medical technicians, corrections officers, and other public safety personnel. It serves as a symbolic gesture to acknowledge the sacrifices made by these families, aligning with a similar federal designation from the previous year. The measure does not create new laws or funding but instead establishes an official date for recognition and remembrance within the state.
