Commending Molly Ames upon the occasion of her designation as recipient of a Liberty Medal, the highest honor bestowed upon an individual by the New York State Senate
This Senate resolution formally commends Molly Ames for receiving the New York State Senate Liberty Medal, the state's highest individual honor. The text recognizes her heroic actions in June 2024 when she stopped her vehicle to assist a cyclist suffering a heart attack in Walworth, New York. Although she had no prior first aid training, she performed CPR for seven minutes until emergency responders arrived, ultimately saving the man's life. The resolution serves as an official acknowledgment of her compassion and bravery rather than creating new laws or policies.
