K 1012 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 13, 2026, as K9 Veterans Day in the State of New York

This bill asks Governor Kathy Hochul to officially declare March 13, 2026, as K9 Veterans Day in New York State. It recognizes the service of military working dogs and other canines that have protected the country from World War I to present conflicts. The resolution directs the state legislature to pause its work to honor these animals and send a formal copy of the proclamation to the Governor. This measure is a commemorative resolution that does not create new laws or funding but establishes an official date for recognition.
