Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 15, 2025, as Paraguayan Heritage Day in the State of New York
This bill is a ceremonial resolution requesting Governor Hochul to designate May 15, 2025, as Paraguayan Heritage Day in New York State. It commemorates Paraguay's 214th Independence Day (May 15, 1811) and recognizes the growing Paraguayan community in New York, noting a 154.4% population increase in NYC between 2010-2019. The resolution does not create new laws or affect any rights; it is purely symbolic, aiming to honor cultural contributions and support community celebrations. It directly addresses the Governor as the recipient of this ceremonial request.
