Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2026, as Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor to officially designate May 2026 as Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month in New York State. The resolution highlights the prevalence and impact of these conditions, noting that they affect millions of people and are particularly burdensome for children and certain racial groups. By aligning with the national observance, the bill aims to increase public education and awareness about managing these chronic health issues. Once adopted, the proclamation serves as a formal recognition of the month rather than implementing new laws or funding.
