Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim October 25, 2025, as Hug a Sheep Day in the State of New York
This is a ceremonial resolution (not a law) requesting Governor Hochul to recognize October 25, 2025, as "Hug a Sheep Day" in New York, aligning with the existing National Hug a Sheep Day observed on the last Saturday of October. It does not create new policies, affect any individuals or entities, or require government action beyond the Governor's symbolic proclamation. The resolution cites the national event's purpose of promoting appreciation for sheep and farm animal welfare through activities like farm visits. It has been adopted by the Assembly but remains a non-binding commemorative gesture.
