J 83 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 10, 2025, as Encourage a Young Writer Day in the State of New York

This symbolic resolution requests Governor Hochul to officially designate April 10, 2025, as "Encourage a Young Writer Day" in New York State, aligning with National Encourage a Young Writer Day. It does not create new laws, allocate funds, or mandate actions - it serves as a formal recommendation to the Governor to recognize the importance of supporting youth writing development. The resolution highlights writing as a creative expression tool and references community efforts like the Academy of Young Writers in Brooklyn. It has been adopted by the legislature and will be transmitted to the Governor for consideration.
