Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2026, as Stop the Bleed Month in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor to officially designate May 2026 as "Stop the Bleed Month" in New York State. The measure aims to raise public awareness about the importance of controlling severe bleeding before professional emergency responders arrive. It does not create new laws or funding but serves as a commemorative resolution to encourage citizens to learn life-saving first aid skills. The text highlights that uncontrolled bleeding is a leading cause of preventable death and notes that bystander intervention can significantly improve survival rates.
