J 1634 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 2026, as Spay/Neuter Awareness Month in the State of New York

This is a Senate Resolution (not a bill), memorializing Governor Hochul to issue a proclamation designating February 2026 as Spay/Neuter Awareness Month in New York. It requests the Governor formally recognize this month to increase public awareness about the benefits of spaying and neutering companion animals, such as reducing pet overpopulation, preventing health issues, and improving animal welfare. The resolution does not create new laws or requirements but asks the Governor to support existing efforts through a symbolic proclamation. It directly affects public awareness campaigns, shelters, and veterinary organizations already working on spay/neuter initiatives across New York.
