Maddy summaryThis Assembly Concurrent Resolution (ACR 1) is a procedural measure that sets the adjournment date for California's 2025-26 First Extraordinary Legislative Session. It directs that the session automatically adjourns "sine die" (permanently) at midnight on the date both the Assembly and Senate pass the resolution. The bill does not create new policy or affect the public; it solely establishes a procedural deadline for the legislature's own session. The title "Relative to K-Ginseng Day" appears unrelated to the resolution's actual content and likely reflects a placeholder or error in the bill's naming. The resolution was adopted by the Senate on February 3, 2025, and filed with the Secretary of State on February 6, 2025.

The measure does not allocate funds or change laws, but rather serves to acknowledge the significance of the 1943 events.
