Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2025 as STOP THE BLEED Month in the State of New York

This Senate Resolution (J 739) asks Governor Hochul to declare May 2025 as "STOP THE BLEED Month" in New York State, aligning with the national observance. It does not create new laws or programs but requests the Governor issue a formal proclamation to raise public awareness about the STOP THE BLEED campaign. The campaign teaches basic bleeding control techniques to help bystanders respond to traumatic injuries before emergency services arrive. This resolution directly affects the Governor's actions and aims to support existing community safety initiatives focused on preventing death from uncontrolled bleeding.
