Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 2026, as Sarcoidosis Awareness Month in the State of New York

This resolution requests Governor Hochul to officially designate April 2026 as Sarcoidosis Awareness Month in New York State, aligning with the national observance. It does not create new laws or policies but serves as a symbolic gesture to raise public awareness about sarcoidosis, an inflammatory disease that commonly affects the lungs and can cause symptoms like coughing, shortness of breath, and fatigue. The resolution highlights the condition's impact on organs including the lungs, skin, and eyes, without imposing any requirements on the Governor or state agencies.
