Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim July 23, 2026, as Egyptian Heritage Day in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially declare July 23, 2026, as Egyptian Heritage Day to honor the state's Egyptian American community. The resolution highlights the cultural contributions of Egyptian Americans and celebrates diplomatic ties between the United States and Egypt, noting landmarks like the Temple of Dendur in New York City. It does not create new laws or change government policies but serves as a symbolic gesture to recognize ethnic diversity and foster ethnic pride. Copies of the resolution will be sent to the Governor, the Egyptian Consul General, and local Egyptian organizations.
