Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim October 11, 2026, as Coming Out Day in the State of New York, in conjunction with the observance of National Coming Out Day

This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially designate October 11, 2026, as Coming Out Day in the state. The measure does not change any laws or create new programs but serves as a formal recognition of the annual event that encourages LGBTQ+ individuals to share their identities with friends and family. By requesting this proclamation, the legislature aims to raise awareness about diversity and support the community without altering existing policies. The resolution is intended solely for ceremonial purposes and will be sent to the Governor for her signature.
