Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim September 22, 2025, as Veterans Suicide Awareness and Remembrance Day in the State of New York

This resolution requests Governor Hochul to officially recognize September 22, 2025, as "Veterans Suicide Awareness and Remembrance Day" in New York State. It aims to honor veterans who died by suicide and raise public awareness about veteran mental health, citing statistics that show veterans have higher suicide rates than the general population (e.g., 22 veterans nationwide die by suicide daily). The resolution does not create new laws or policies but formally asks the Governor to issue the proclamation, aligning with National Suicide Prevention Month in September 2025.
