HOUSE RESOLUTION PROCLAIMING "CARRIGAN NELSON DAY" ON FEBRUARY 8, 2025, IN THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND

This bill is a commemorative resolution, not a policy change. It formally proclaims February 8, 2025, as "Carrigan Nelson Day" in Rhode Island to honor Carrigan Nelson, a young woman battling pediatric osteosarcoma cancer since 2019. The resolution recognizes her advocacy work, including lobbying Congress for pediatric cancer funding and serving on nonprofit boards. It directs the Secretary of State to send a certified copy of the resolution to Carrigan Nelson. The bill directly honors Carrigan and raises awareness for cancer warriors, with no legislative or financial impact.
