Relative to César Chávez Day.
Senate Resolution 29 is a commemorative resolution honoring César Chávez and his legacy as a farmworker rights leader. It recognizes his life's work in advocating for labor protections and the existing California state holiday on March 31, which celebrates his birthday and legacy. The resolution does not create new policy or change laws, but formally acknowledges Chávez's contributions to the farmworker movement and the 2000 law (SB 984) that established the holiday.
