J 15 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

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 is a ceremonial Senate resolution (J 15), not a law-making bill. It formally commends Molly Ames, a resident of Sodus, New York, for receiving the New York State Senate's Liberty Medal - the Senate's highest honor for individuals. The resolution recognizes her heroic actions in June 2024 when she stopped to assist a man having a heart attack, performed CPR for seven minutes without formal training, and helped save his life. The resolution has no policy impact beyond expressing the Senate's appreciation for her humanitarian act.
