Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2026, as Workers' Awareness Month in the State of New York
This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially designate May 2026 as Workers' Awareness Month. The resolution honors all workers in the state, including those in both union and non-union roles across public and private sectors. It aims to highlight the importance of labor rights, such as the ability to organize and bargain collectively, while also acknowledging the historical significance of May Day. The measure is a symbolic proclamation intended to raise awareness about the contributions of workers rather than to change specific laws or policies.
