HB 228 Alaska House · 34th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act establishing the month of October as Jewish Heritage Month.

HB 228 designates October each year as Jewish Heritage Month in Alaska. The bill formally adds this designation to Alaska Statutes, requiring the state to recognize Jewish residents' contributions through public ceremonies, educational activities, and official observances during October. It does not create new programs or funding but establishes a framework for state-level acknowledgment. This affects how the state publicly honors Jewish heritage and community contributions.
