Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 15 to June 15, 2026, as Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month in New York State

This resolution requests Governor Hochul to officially designate May 15-June 15, 2026, as Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month in New York State. It directly affects New Yorkers living with Tourette Syndrome by seeking to increase public awareness of the condition, reduce stigma, and promote early diagnosis and treatment. The resolution has no binding effect - it is a symbolic request for the Governor to issue a proclamation, not a new law or policy. It aligns with National Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month observed by the Tourette Association of America.
