J 2717 New York Senate · 2023 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim September 25, 2024, as Bangladeshi Immigrant Day in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially designate September 25, 2024, as Bangladeshi Immigrant Day to honor the contributions of Bangladeshi Americans. The resolution recognizes the state's large Bangladeshi community, particularly in Queens, and highlights the historical significance of the date when the first speech in Bengali was delivered at the United Nations. It serves as a formal acknowledgment of the culture and achievements of immigrants from Bangladesh without creating new laws or funding.
