Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 30, 2025, as World Bipolar Day in the State of New York
This Senate Resolution (J 206) asks Governor Hochul to issue a proclamation designating March 30, 2025, as "World Bipolar Day" in New York State. It aims to raise public awareness about bipolar disorder and reduce stigma associated with the condition, aligning with global observances. The resolution does not create new laws or provide funding - it is a symbolic gesture supported by mental health organizations like the International Bipolar Foundation. The Senate has adopted it, but the Governor must still formally issue the proclamation.
