Celebrating Dairy Day.
HR 4616 is a ceremonial resolution honoring Washington's dairy industry. It acknowledges dairy farmers' contributions to the state's economy and communities without creating new laws or policies. The resolution designates February 11, 2025, for legislators to visit dairy farms and celebrate the industry, referencing Washington's status as the 10th largest milk producer and its $1 billion economic impact. This symbolic gesture recognizes the industry's historical significance (dating to 1838) and role as the state's second-largest agricultural commodity.
