Assembly Resolution No. 384

BY: M. of A. Brabenec

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 April 2025, as Pet Cruelty Awareness Month in the
 State of New York

 WHEREAS, Millions of pets across New York and throughout the United
States are abused, abandoned and neglected; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to memorialize
Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 2025, as Pet Cruelty Awareness
Month in the State of New York, in conjunction with the observance of
National Animal Cruelty Awareness Month; and

 WHEREAS, In observance of April as Animal Cruelty Awareness Month,
animal-control officers are reminding residents of what constitutes
cruelty; and

 WHEREAS, In addition, they are encouraging neighbors, family members
and all residents of the State of New York to learn the signs of cruelty
to animals and to report these incidents to police; and

 WHEREAS, Helpless animals depend on humans to intervene when their
conditions are uninhabitable or unfit; and

 WHEREAS, Each year, the American Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) urges supporters across the country to "Go
Orange for Animals" throughout the month of April since the ASPCA's
charter was signed in 1866 to raise awareness for its cause; and

 WHEREAS, Together we can improve the lives of animals in every
corner of New York State; Go Orange! Glow Orange! Show Orange for
Animals!; and

 WHEREAS, It is imperative that there be greater public awareness of
this serious issue, and more must be done to increase activity at the
local, State and national levels; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 2025, as Pet Cruelty
Awareness Month in the State of New York,

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
