Honoring Staff Sergeant Michael H. Ollis posthumously upon receiving the Congressional Medal of Honor and his induction into the Hall of Heroes

This bill is a resolution that formally honors Staff Sergeant Michael H. Ollis, a New York Army soldier who posthumously received the Congressional Medal of Honor and was inducted into the Pentagon's Hall of Heroes. The resolution recognizes Ollis's heroic sacrifice during a 2013 Taliban attack in Afghanistan, where he shielded an allied officer and saved dozens of lives, and acknowledges the Medal of Honor ceremony and Hall of Heroes induction that took place in March 2026. The measure directs the New York State Legislature to pause its proceedings to pay tribute to Ollis and requires sending a copy of the resolution to his family.
