Assembly Resolution No. 1345

BY: M. of A. Rules (Griffin)

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 July 1, 2026, as Postal Worker Day in the State of
 New York

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body takes great pride in participating in
days of awareness of those vital professions that affect the quality of
life for the many New Yorkers throughout this great Empire State; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim July 1, 2026, as Postal
Worker Day in the State of New York, in conjunction with the observance
of National Postal Worker Day; and

 WHEREAS, Established in 1997 by a Seattle-area carrier who wanted to
honor fellow employees, National Postal Worker Day is celebrated
annually on July 1st; it is a day to appreciate and thank the numerous
postal workers who work consistently and diligently to deliver all of
our mail and packages; and

 WHEREAS, The United States Postal service has connected, and
continues to connect, all corners of our country, growing from 75 post
offices serving a population of almost 4 million people in 1789 to more
than 31,000 post offices serving more than 342 million Americans today;
the commitment and efforts of postal workers ensures these post offices
continue to run successfully; and

 WHEREAS, There are approximately 490,000 postal workers across the
United States, nearly 40,000 of which are in New York State, who work in
all kinds of weather including rain, sleet, blizzards, and extreme heat
and cold, yet continue to persevere throughout each week; and

 WHEREAS, Across the United States, postal workers walk an average of
four to eight miles carrying a full load of letters and packages and
delivering them promptly to each of our doorsteps; and

 WHEREAS, Postal workers fill an essential role in our communities,
and their commitment embodies a proud tradition of public service,
working in any kind of circumstance to ensure that mail and packages are
delivered promptly and safely; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to bring awareness
to postal workers and the essential role they play in the everyday life
of all citizens; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim July 1, 2026, as Postal
Worker Day in the State of New York; and be it further

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