Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim November 15-21, 2026, as Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week in the State of New York
This bill asks Governor Kathy Hochul to officially declare November 15-21, 2026, as Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week in New York. The resolution aims to raise public attention about food insecurity and lack of housing by aligning with a national observance that takes place just before Thanksgiving. It highlights statistics showing that millions of New Yorkers face hunger and that thousands experience homelessness daily. The measure does not change laws or allocate funding; it simply requests a formal proclamation to encourage community awareness and support for local service organizations.
