Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim October 2026, as Rett Syndrome Awareness Month in the State of New York
This bill directs the Governor of New York to officially recognize October 2026 as Rett Syndrome Awareness Month. The resolution highlights Rett syndrome as a genetic neurological disorder that primarily affects females and causes significant developmental challenges, including loss of speech and motor skills. By designating this month, the legislation aims to increase public and medical awareness of the condition and the ongoing research efforts to find a cure. The measure is a symbolic proclamation and does not create new laws or allocate funding.
