Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 24, 2025, as Domestic Violence Awareness and Prevention Day in the State of New York
This is a procedural resolution (not a law) requesting Governor Hochul to designate February 24, 2025, as "Domestic Violence Awareness and Prevention Day" in New York State. It does not create new laws or allocate funding but formally asks the Governor to issue a public proclamation. The resolution cites statistics on domestic violence impacts (affecting diverse groups including women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and children) and notes New York's high demand for related services. The bill was adopted by the legislature on February 25, 2025, and will be sent to the Governor for consideration.
