HR 8 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A resolution to declare January 13, 2025, as Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated, Day in the state of Michigan.

This is a ceremonial resolution, not a policy bill. It declares January 13, 2025, as "Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated, Day" in Michigan to commemorate the sorority's founding date (January 13, 1913) and recognize its service. The resolution highlights the sorority's history, its 28 Michigan chapters, and its community-focused programs. It has no policy impact - it is purely symbolic and affects no specific group through legislative action.
