Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 2026 as Women in the Trades Month in the State of New York

This bill directs Governor Kathy Hochul to officially recognize March 2026 as Women in the Trades Month in New York State. The resolution highlights the growing presence of women in skilled labor fields like construction, plumbing, and electrical work, while acknowledging ongoing challenges such as gender stereotypes and workplace discrimination. By aligning with the national observance, the bill aims to raise awareness about women's contributions to industries historically dominated by men and encourage greater diversity in the workforce. The measure does not create new funding or policy requirements but serves as a formal proclamation to promote inclusivity and celebrate achievements in the trades.
