Recognizing April 18, 2026, as Dia del Locutor in the State of New York
This bill designates April 18, 2026, as Dia del Locutor in New York State to honor Spanish-language broadcasters and media communicators. The resolution acknowledges the important role these professionals play in delivering news, cultural content, and public information to Spanish-speaking communities across the state. By pausing legislative proceedings on this date, the Assembly formally recognizes the dedication and cultural impact of these media figures. The measure does not create new laws or funding but serves as a symbolic recognition of the Latino community and its media representatives.
