Supporting the designation of April 2026 as "National Native Plant Month".
This resolution expresses support for designating April 2026 as National Native Plant Month to highlight the importance of indigenous plant species. The measure recognizes that native plants are essential for healthy ecosystems, helping to clean air, filter water, and support wildlife habitats. It also notes the decline of over 200 native plant species due to habitat loss and other environmental challenges. As a symbolic gesture, the bill does not create new laws or funding but serves to raise awareness about conserving these plants.
